In practice, it permits your web pages to contain minimal -scripting since the presentation is separate from the PHP scripting. - -- The **Model** represents your data structures. Typically your model - classes will contain functions that help you retrieve, insert, and - update information in your database. -- The **View** is the information that is being presented to a user. A - View will normally be a web page, but in CodeIgniter, a view can also - be a page fragment like a header or footer. It can also be an RSS - page, or any other type of "page". -- The **Controller** serves as an *intermediary* between the Model, the - View, and any other resources needed to process the HTTP request and - generate a web page. - -CodeIgniter has a fairly loose approach to MVC since Models are not -required. If you don't need the added separation, or find that -maintaining models requires more complexity than you want, you can -ignore them and build your application minimally using Controllers and -Views. CodeIgniter also enables you to incorporate your own existing -scripts, or even develop core libraries for the system, enabling you to -work in a way that makes the most sense to you. |
