[eluser]li9ht[/eluser]
im using this

Code:

<?=anchor('test/','Home'); ?>  |  <?=anchor('test/summary/','Summary'); ?>

to make the navigation
however it doesnt show the correct patch.. its showing localhost/ even thought when i open at other computer.. so does the img() and

Code:

<?=link_tag('css/style.css')?>

function.. it fetching data from base_url.. is there any other way ..and i cant use absolute path.. dunno why?

The helpers are designed to ease the transition between development/production environments - by not using absolute paths you increase your mobility in moving stuff around. The helpers will use whatever you have set in your base_url in config.php.

Regardless, you are always free to ignore the helpers and just use plain old HTML to point to absolute paths.
