  <p>here is my problem, I have a folder named ci and the content is this format</p>
  
  <pre><code>   ~/Sites/ci$ ls -la
     total 56

  <p>As you can see the folder named ci has my application folder and if i put this on my server i will have to navigate to <code>http;//mysite.com/ci</code> which is not what i want. How do i make this work without having to use ci in the url</p>
