CI and Phil Strugeons REST API

[eluser]ortenheim[/eluser]
Ok phil, i have installed and tried your RESTimplementation and it looks very promising, i am new to RESTful webservices and get the

Code:

http://localhost/codeigniter/index.php/example_api/user/id/1

and

Code:

http://localhost/codeigniter/index.php/example_api/users/users/format/html

to work

but how do i add a user? how do i use rest to start a function (for example a counter of users in the database? and return the result?)

i am trying to make a simple restful server that
1. you can insert single users from a aspx application and 2. return the amount of users in the database

perhaps some more documentation on how to make restful services? I could help you do this if you help me understand how it works
or perhaps a tutorial with models and a database for practical applications?

would love your help. thank you for your library and efforts.
