Ah, codeigniter follows the MVC (Model View Controller) pattern. Where you usually handle the storage and the fetching of knowledge in models. The page or data that will be presented to the users in views and the 'glue' or logic between the two in controllers. Codinghorror has a pretty good explaination on the general pattern in a blogpost. If you aren't familiar with MVC check it out!

You may not like my answer but the tutorial in the codeigniter docs is probably the fastest way to get started and know where to write what code.
