Title: Added some functionality

Not sure if you want this in the context of your helper, but I modified it in my CI application in this manner. This code works very well for displaying a flash alert after a redirect but would not display the flash alert after a $this->load->view() call. In reading, it seems as though this may be by design, but I found my self needed to flash alerts after both scenarios. So, I merged your method with the method found on the CI wiki (http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Simple_FlashNotice_helper/) and ended up with a helper that works in both scenarios.

Also, thanks for writing this helper, I found it extremely useful and much nicer than the flash interface CI provides by default.
