Hi guys

<link rel=“stylesheet” href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>css/styles.css" type=“text/css”/>
where my css folder is at the top level of the codeigniter folder...
in page source the link works fine

what does base_url echoes?
It doesn't echo http://localhost/xampp/codeigniter/
are you using virtual directories? if not it would be echoing http://localhost/ or http://localhost/xamp/ (I'm not familiar with xamp or wamp)
set in config.php
Code:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/xampp/codeigniter/';or (my choice) create a virtual directory to get you closer to production servers.
