I’m using this series of tutorials to build an application. Great job and very well explained, now jquery and ajax don’t scare me

I had a problem when I uploaded the app. to the production server. Let me share it with you:

It is very important the php version. My production server has php 5.1.6 and the ajax calls weren’t work. This is because the jquery template plugin uses json data to render the table template. If you look at the controller, the data is encoded in json using the function ‘json_encode()’. This function is available only in php versions > 5.2

At this moment is not possible to upgrade the php version in the production server but I found this cool library to make the json_encode function work: http://www.boutell.com/scripts/jsonwrapper.html

And that’s it!

Thanks iFadey, I saved a lot of time and learned too.

Actually he’s right. The loader will not always load classes with improper capitalization. It will only work on some operating systems.

Some Linux/Unix will not load improperly capitalized CI Classes.

Thanks phpworker.
Actually it’s just a naming convention. Everyone has own preference for writing model names

Great tutorial, thanks!

One thing I want to norice here – you cannot use names like “mUsers” for model nor for controller class names. First letter must be capitalized.

Thanks for this index_page helper function. I didn’t knew about it. But I know the limitation of embedding index.php in js files. For that I use htaccess to remove index.php from my URLs.

Thanks again for sharing that function

Nice tutorial, thanks… I am looking forward to learning more about the capabilities of the ms template extensions to jquery. This is the first I have seen them used

Actually you might need to do it this way:

var base_url = “”;

By: SeanJA

You could get rid of the index.php part in your javascript if you set something like:

var base_url = “”;

before you include any other javascript files. That way you could avoid problems when you change things.

Finding default controller is simple. First check the application/config.php file and see what’s the value of $route['default_controller']. Then open the controllers folder and find the file with the same name as given in config.php.

Also for changing the default controller, you need to write assignment statement like this:
$route['default_controller'] = ‘home’;

Very nice tutorial and as Abdullah said, very well explained. I’m also waiting for the next part!
Thank you

Sometimes I have problems with finding the starting index page when using Codeigniter and today was no exception. Your suggestion of using:
$route['default_controller'] to “home”. ‘default_controller’;
Does not work for me but simply using:
$route['default_controller'] to “home”; works.

Do you know why?
Thanks for the tutorial. Now that I have it working I’ll be rereading your tutorial to make sure I understand it and I am anxiously waiting for part 2.
