Answer 1

Sorry, I'm afraid it's not possible. CodeIgniter (or browsers in general, for that matter) need an index file, by editing the .htaccess file you tell the browser not to show the 'index.php' part, but it's still there. Removing the index.php file itself is silly since your website won't work without it.
