custom helper file isn't loading codeigniter

[eluser]Xeroxeen[/eluser]
Hi,

I created a custom helper in codeigniter.And placed it in the system/helpers folder.My file name was "customhelper_helper.php".Then i loaded it in my controller this way."$this->load->helper('customhelper');".After that i called the function inside the helper file.But it's not working.Why is that?Plz help guys...

All custom things must be set inside your App folder not at Sys!

And other thing is the _helper in the name. Remove it and leave it as customhelper.php.

Check CI Docs - http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...lpers.html

But it's still not loading.Why is that?

Code:

// should be named like this application/helpers/custom_helper.php
custom_helper.php

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

Finally i could solve it.I removed,

if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
if ( ! function_exists('myfunctionname'))

Then it works fine
