                $this->info = $site->row();
            }
        }

Thanks

1. If u have session, get it from session $CI->session->userdata('userId')
2. u can also path it as a parameter for library
$params = array('type' => 'large', 'color' => 'red');
$this->load->library('Someclass', $params);

To work and use CodeIgniter inside a library you need to get the CI Super Object Instance.

PHP Code:

class Your_Name {

    /**
     * @var
     * Holds the CI Super Object.
     */
    private $CI;

    /**
     * __construct ()
     * --------------------------------------------------------------------
     *
     * Constructor    PHP 5+
     *
     * NOTE: Not needed if not setting values or extending a Class.
     *
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->CI =& get_instance();
    }

} 


Then when you need to access you use this.

PHP Code:

$someThing = $this->CI->yourThing(); 


But for user id's, information etc; Use the session.

What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?
