I've been searching and searching and don't seem to get any answer so here goes the question.

Where do I place the CSS file(s) that I would like my application/pages to use ?

There is no CSS directory or styles directory in the hierarchy.

Hi,
CI directory structure is just for the application. What you can do is create an assets folder under application and CSS folder under assets so you have

CI
-- application
----assets
------css
------img
------js

and then you can use

Code:

APPPATH."assets/css/style.css"

simple isn't it.

Good Day !!!

I make a www folder in the same directory as system

Code:

+ system
+ www
  + css
  + img
  + js

In your template/layout, you can use the <base> tag like this:

Code:

<base href="<?php echo $this->config->item('base_url') ?>www/" />

To load CSS:

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/screen.css" media="screen,projection" title="Screen layout" />

Images:

Code:

<img src="img/header.jpg" />

Thanx but unfortunately it didn't work as smooth as I hoped :-(
I am using MACROMEDIA Dreamweaver, it uses the included the styles/CSS file from a path that is local and when I upload the file to the site then that path does not match the real structure as it is now relative to the application folder whereas the real structure is based off of the system folder.

Have you tried like this in view?

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?=base_url()?>css/file.css">

where css folder will be inside your project folder, and outside system folder.
