Base path problem with CI

[eluser]shinokada[/eluser]
When I use this in a view file,

Code:

'Basepath: ' . BASEPATH . '<br />'.

I get the following output.

Basepath: C:\xampp\htdocs\ci_copy/system/

Can you see \ci_copy/system/?

I thought it is taken care of in index.php but it obviously not.

Could anyone give me some input how to solve this problem?

Probably good to show exactly what you are trying to do. But if you are trying to set the base url then you should use base_url(). So locating an image may be <img src = '&lt;?=base_url(); ?&gt;....'
