I'm creating test controllers and everything had been working okay until this last function I wrote to test the url helper. I'm now getting this error:
Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'CI_Controller' in C:\wamp\www\codeigniter\CodeIgniter_2.1.0\application\controllers\dorjeboard.php on line 5
on line 5 is the parent::CI_Controller; call in the constructor. WTH?

Code:
parent::CI_Controller
// should be
parent::__construct();why this error? - El Forum - 03-30-2012

Yes, both have double underscores.
Code:
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();

Ok, that worked, but it just loaded my next view appended on to the same page. I'm using the url helper, how do I get it to completely reload the page?

Never mind. I have a big booboo in my HTML.

So for the constructor you don't name it the same name as the class? I named it the class name, not __construct();

It should be the way I showed you above that is the PHP 5 constructor.
Naming the constructor with the class name is PHP 4 way.

Ok. Thanks. I've been watching some older tutorials I guess.
