Question

I am using a SWFupload script and I can’t make a request from flash with mod_rewrite, I don’t know why… I just need to point the Flash request to that file directly. This file runs an upload script that works ok but now I need to save some info to the database and I would like to know what should I write to have access from that file that is not called from the controller and does not extend the model in order to run a mysql query.

Thanks.

If you include the ci core you can access the CI object like this:

$CI =& get_instance();

$CI->db->get('stuff');
