converting from php $_GET variables to code igniter

Question

I am learning to use the CodeIgniter framework. I am coming form a world where get variables determined which body file to include in the index.php.

So with the MVC style coding I am unsure how to have a skeleton view which subsequent views are just the body of the page.

any Ideas?

My suggestion is to try and load multiple views based on the data being sent through the $_GET variable. The documentation for CodeIgniter explains how to do this:

The skeleton parts of your site would always be loaded by the controller with the part that changes dependent on the $_GET data.
