| <h1>The Scripts Folder</h1> | |
| <p>Inside the <dfn>application</dfn> directory you'll find a folder called <kbd>scripts</kbd>. Its purpose is | |
| to give you a place to store your own script includes or classes.</p> | |
| <h2>Loading a Script</h2> | |
| <p>Your scripts can be loaded in your controllers or views using the following function:</p> | |
| <code>$this->load->script('<var>name</var>');</code> | |
| <p>Where <var>name</var> is the file name of the script, without the .php file extension.</p> | |
| <p>For example, to load a file called <dfn>utilities.php</dfn> you would do this:</p> | |
| <code>$this->load->script('<var>utilities</var>');</code> | |
| <p>If you load a script in your controller constructor it will be available | |
| automatically in any function, or you can load it in a specific function that needs it.</p> | |
| <p class="important">Note: The Script loading function above does not return a value, so don't try to assign it to a variable. Just use it as shown.</p> | |
| <h2>Loading Multiple Scripts</h2> | |
| <p>If you need to load more than one script you can specify them in an array, like this:</p> | |
| <code>$this->load->script( <samp>array(</samp>'<var>script1</var>', '<var>script2</var>', '<var>script3</var>'<samp>)</samp> );</code> | |
| <h2>Auto-loading Scripts</h2> | |
| <p>If you find that you need a particular script globally throughout your application, you can tell Code Igniter to auto-load it | |
| during system initialization. This is done by opening the <var>application/config/autoload.php</var> file and adding | |
| the script to the autoload array.</p> | |
