I'm not sure what your question is.

Hm, the first response by Rey Philip Regis in your link with the similar post has a great example. Are you asking if there is a way for CI to create a view that automatically includes the category? If so, then no CI doesn't do that. Nor does any other framework I know of.

application/librares/layout.php

Code:
&lt;?php  

if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Layout

{

    var $obj;

    var $layout;

    function __construct($layout = "layouts/page")

    {

        $this->obj =& get_instance();

        $this->layout = $layout;

    }

    function setLayout($layout)

    {

      $this->layout = $layout;

    }

    function view($view, $data=null, $return=false)

    {

        $loadedData = array();

        $loadedData['content_for_layout'] = $this->obj->load->view($view,$data,true);

        if($return)

        {

            $output = $this->obj->load->view($this->layout, $loadedData, true);

            return $output;

        }

        else

        {

            $this->obj->load->view($this->layout, $loadedData, false);

        }

    }

}

Code:
$this->load->library('layout');

Code:
$this->layout->view('myfile', $data);

Layouts page

Code:
&lt;html&gt;

&lt;header&gt;&lt;/header>

&lt;body&gt;

<div id="header">

</div>

<div id="content">

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;
