problems following CI tutorial - pls help

[eluser]ICEcoffee[/eluser]
I am following the 2nd CI video tutorial, and I'm not sure if I have things set properly. Despite following tutorial, I can't get the scaffolding page loaded. It may be something to do with the fact, I am have PHP5 configured on my localhost Xampp server? or some other entry. I tried useing a PHP4 then changing to a PHP5 construct in my default controller, but I get any errors, nor do I see the scaffolding page.

This is what I have:

default controller:
Code:
<?php
class Home extends Controller{
/*
    function Home() {
        parent::Controller();
        $this->load->scaffolding('articles');

    }
*/

    function _construct() {
        parent::_construct();
        $this->load->scaffolding('articles');
    }

    function index(){
         $this->load->view('home_view.html');
echo "this is a test from the home controller";
    }

}
?>

routes.php:

$route['default_controller'] = "home";
$route['scaffolding_trigger'] = "build";


Default view:

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;title&gt;my title&lt;/title&gt;
        &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" /&gt;
    &lt;/head&gt;
    &lt;body&gt;
        &lt;!-- Layout --&gt;
        <div id="wrapper">
            <div id="header">
                header
            </div>
            <div id="b_crumb">
                Bread Crumbs
            </div>
            <div id="container">
                <div id="center">
                    &lt;?php print "content" ?&gt;
                          content
                          &lt;?php echo " - - this is a test fron the view controller"; ?&gt;
                    <div id="footer">
                        &lt;?php print "footer" ?&gt;
                                footer
                    </div>
                </div>
                &lt;!-- /#center --&gt;
                <div id="sidebar-right" class="sidebar">
                    &lt;?php print "right sidebar" ?&gt;
                          sidebar
                </div>
                <span class="clear"></span>
            </div>
            &lt;!-- /container --&gt;<span class="clear"></span>
        </div>
        &lt;!-- /layout --&gt;
    &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;

autoload.php
Code:
$autoload['libraries'] = array('database');

config.php:
Code:
$config['base_url']    = "http://localhost/mic/";
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";

The database.php has been checked for correct db info.


I don't think I've left anything out, except to say, that as you can see, I put some simple echo statements in the default controller and view files and the show up when pointing my browser to http://loacalhost/mic/ and the CSS file get loaded too with images.

I can't figure out where I have gone wrong. Can anybody help pls?
