function index()
{
// Build the needed markup using the default config
$data['login_code'] = $this->extid->generate_login('default');
// Load your page
$this->load->view('login_page', $data);
}
/**
* Handles the actual logging in
*

*/
function finish_auth()
{
$data = $this->extid->finish_auth();
//

// values not provided will be NULL. If the provider is Facebook, there
// is an extra value, 'id', which refers to the user's Facebook ID number.
//
// $data = array(
// 'fullname' => string, the user's name
// 'nickname' => string, the user's username/nickname
// 'email' => string, the user's email address (never provided by Twitter)
// 'id' => string, only if provider is Facebook/Twitter
// )
