Hi I know i will possibly feel really stupid when this is explained but i'm stuck. I'm new to CI and just downloaded it, installed it on my wamp server, i have got as far as the welcome page so i think i have done the install correctly. Now my problem: I have no idea where to go next i was going to do the hello world tutorial but i cant work 8out where the working window is? Possibly a silly question to someone who has used CI for a while but i'm totally lost (i'm going to blame it on my age) Thnk you to everyone who may help and please go easy on me lol Nook6 ********** EDIT ********** Ok im getting more confused now i have just read you use your own GUI i use pspad but am wondering how this will help if you do the scripts in a different gui?? (im really confused now lol) Nook6 ********** END EDIT **********

Read the CodeIgniter User Guide You need a PHP Editor, this will depend on your Operating System. InsiteFX

Codeigniter doesn't have its own GUI. The PHP files are 'plain text' so they can be edited by any text editor (like notepad). However, people normally use an IDE/php editor as these will help with managing the code (eg. they highlight and sometimes suggest required syntax). Notepad++ isn't a bad start. The files you mainly deal with are in application/controllers, application/models and application/views. Under tutorials there are a few 'starting codeigniter' videos so if you don't follow one (which, you should now) then try a different one. |
