I do like the $this->input->post('item'); purely because I don't have to check for isset it does it for me. I originally resisted the active record class as well, but I've started to take a more serious look at it. @SeanJA it is cookie based. http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html @gavinblair I tend to make use of standard code for forms, sometimes the codeigniter form helper is nicer though.

Why oh god why would you type out an entire form when there is a form helper there?

&ltinput type=text name=name id=id value=<php echo isset($_POST[value])? $_POST[value]:null; ?> />

vs

$value = post(‘value’);
f->input(‘name’, ‘id’, $value);

CodeIgniter 2.0 will be phasing out support for PHP 4 (and by 2.1 they say that PHP4 stuff will probably not work at all). Good news!

I set up a library and call the logged in method either in the construct or the individual methods of the controller depending on whether every method requires the user to be logged in or just some. Your way definitely cuts down on code which is always nice. As a side note do you avoid the codeigniter session class? I know there is a lot of debate over the ci session setup vs. Native PHP sessions. Interesting way of managing authentication.
