Cannot find my folder - El Forum - 03-29-2010
[eluser]johnnyForums[/eluser]
Hi, I have the stock installation and added an assets folder so that my structure is:
CodeIgniter_1.7.2
-system
--application
---assets <-missing folder reference
---config
---controllers
---...all the rest
In my code I have:
Code:
<?php echo site_url(); ?><br />
<?php echo base_url(); ?><br />
<img src="<?= site_url('assets/images/960_12_10_10.png');?>" alt="My Image" />I get the site and base url returned but I can never load my image nor any css files.
I cannot manually browse to them either with:
http://myserver/index.php/assets/images/960_12_10_10.png
The files are there. All is spelled and cased correctly, I just can't get the files to show.
In config.php I have:
Code:
$config['base_url'] = "http://myserver/";My webpages come up fine, just not my stuff in the new assets folder.
What am I missing since I added to my project the assets folder?
Thank you.
EDIT: fwiw, I have hacked the URL lots and moved the assets folder all over the place.
What I found was that I can only see the items if I put my assets folder like this:
CodeIgniter_1.7.2
-assets
-system
--application
What did I do wrong if I want it under application?

Since you cannot manually browse to them, it could be something to do with your .htaccess file. Post that in here if you can.

Try this:
Code:
WRONG!
<img src="<?= site_url('assets/images/960_12_10_10.png');?>" alt="My Image" />
<img src="<?php echo base_url();?>assets/images/960_12_10_10.png" alt="My Image" />
or
<img src="<?php echo site_url('assets/images/');?>960_12_10_10.png" alt="My Image" />Enjoy

base_url() is used while displaying images rather than site_url(). There is a big difference in base_url() and site_url(). one of them is base_url does not include index.php while site_url does include it. then think how an image can be loaded if the path will be like this http://myserver/index.php/assets/images/960_12_10_10.png .
