Master views aren't built into the framework. To get a similar effect you can load the subview and pass that to the master view.

Controller :

class Items extends Controller
{
    function show($id)
    {
        $item = $this->item_model->get_item($id);

        // Load the subview
        $content = $this->load->view('item/show', array('item' => $item), true);

        // Pass to the master view
        $this->load->view('master_view', array('content' => $content));
    }
}

Master view :

To answer your other question, I keep all Javascript scripts and CSS in directories in the root of my project.
