Codeigniter - Simple Base_Url Question

CodeIgniter - Simple base_url question

I think your problem is that base_url is a function in ci 2+ so try this instead

<link href="<?php echo base_url() ?>css/style.css" 
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

It depends how you defined base_url if you did an ending slash otherwise just add a slash so

/css/style.css

How to set proper codeigniter base url?

Base URL should be absolute, including the protocol:

$config['base_url'] = "http://somesite.com/somedir/";

If using the URL helper, then base_url() will output the above string.

Passing arguments to base_url() or site_url() will result in the following (assuming $config['index_page'] = "index.php";:

echo base_url('assets/stylesheet.css'); // http://somesite.com/somedir/assets/stylesheet.css
echo site_url('mycontroller/mymethod'); // http://somesite.com/somedir/index.php/mycontroller/mymethod

base_url() function not working in codeigniter

In order to use base_url(), you must first have the URL Helper loaded. This can be done either in application/config/autoload.php (on or around line 67):

$autoload['helper'] = array('url');

Or, manually:

$this->load->helper('url');

Once it's loaded, be sure to keep in mind that base_url() doesn't implicitly print or echo out anything, rather it returns the value to be printed:

echo base_url();

Remember also that the value returned is the site's base url as provided in the config file. CodeIgniter will accomodate an empty value in the config file as well:

If this (base_url) is not set then CodeIgniter will guess the protocol, domain and path to your installation.

application/config/config.php, line 13

Codeigniter base_url() in whack?

CodeIgniter automatically adds the base_url to the action of the form when you use the form helper.

For example, you can use:

<?=form_open('main/login'); ?>

which will produce:
http//example.com/main/login

And a correct URL! Pretty simple! :D

Codeigniter: Base_url doesn't seem to be working

I am on the grid as well. After re-reading your question and doing a little testing (it works for me), I think what's happening is you forgot to load the url helper.

If you want the sites base url available to you to use in the application via base_url(), you need to load the url helper first. Either via config/autoload.php or load it manually in your controller.

Otherwise you could use config/constants.php to define constant variables:

define('BASE_URL', 'http://site.com');
define('BASE_PATH', '/path/to/CI/folder');

codeigniter using the name of controller in base url

this is happen when you don't echo base URL only (echo) is missing thanks to all for ans

How can I make part of base_url in codeigniter as a dynamic one?

This should include the footer image dynamically inside your code:

<?php echo base_url('assets/images/' . $footer->image); ?>

The dot operator concatenates two strings.
