Proposal for an updated mod_rewrite suggestion in the documentation and update of user agent string.

[Repox]

Adressing issue #684 as OP mistakes the current suggestion as 'incorrect', the rewrite rules could be changed into this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

This is a flexible solution for new developers in CI and for developers who are unexperienced with the mod_rewrite module.

One of the first questions I found on SO searching for 'codeigniter' and 'mod_rewrite' was this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6756181/mod-rewrite-for-codeigniter
I think questions and answers like these suggested supports the documentation suggestion.

Also updating user agent string from previous commit b8daad7 after being corrected in a comment.

Documentation for the correct user agents and user agent strings for Opera browsers can be found at http://my.opera.com/community/openweb/idopera/

This is not the place to get help with your development.
I suggest you ask in CodeIgniters official forums at http://codeigniter.com/forums/ or at Stack Overflow at http://stackoverflow.com
