Basic image/file display issues - El Forum - 02-18-2010

I am a complete n00b to both CI and MVC framework. I am trying to get my images/css/etc.. to display properly in the browser.

However, the only thing that seems to work is actual text.

Do I need to set routes or something for the 'img' folder as well as the 'com' folder which has 'css','js','etc..' in it?

Here is the controller that I am using:

Code:
&lt;?php

    class Home extends Controller{

        function Home()

        {

            parent::Controller();

        }

        function index()

        {

            $data['title'] = ' home';

            $data['heading'] = 'heading';

            $this->load->view('home_view');

        }

    }

?&gt;

trying to put this in the view does not work:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

&lt;html &gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Untitled Document&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;link type="text/css" src="com/css/global.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" /&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

    <img src="img/logo.png"/>

    home

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

Thanks for any insight.

So it appears it was a scope issue an using:

Code:
&lt;?= base_url();?&gt;

Solved the trick, however how do I use base_url(); in a css file?
