Confusion calling model functions

Your model's file name should be lower case, and the model name you pass to the loader should also be lowercase.[/quote]

One of us has been doing something wrong for a while, then

Didn't even notice that the constructor wasn't calling MY_Controller - yes, that will confuse things.

Agree with the camel case - ugly thing, hard to read, but mostly it's just out of style spec for CI - so you'll have Fun when you start assimilating other people's code.

Models being plural, controllers being singular - an interesting approach. Hadn't heard of that one.

Models should reflect a coherent lump of your data - it may be a table, it may be a few dozen tables. Controllers reflect a grouping of activities. There may be a 1:1 relationship between a controller and a model, but I think people's eagerness to construct that relationship often leads them down (ultimately) confusing design paths. Of course, I may be wrong on this, and may be the confused one. Something to think about, anyway.
