Hi all, I'm newbie into Codeigniter and I find is an excellent piece of software, I was pretty excited about using it, but now I am a little bit dissapointed.

This is my first php framework, trying to accomplish the video tutorial "blog in 20 minutes" and I am stuck... again, first I noticed that the video tutorial doesn't speak about creating a model for the controller is necessary, so when talks about putting...

$data['query'] = $this->db->get('entries');

into the blog controller it didn't worked for me... after hours of searching I realize that I had to create a blog_model and create an

function get_entries()
{
$query = $this->db->get('entries');
return $query->result();
}

and replacing

$data['query'] = $this->db->get('entries');
for
$data['query'] = $this->blog_model->get_entries();

Well... It took more or less four hours of headache

But now I am stuck in the function comments(), I get a 404 page, the url helper gives me the right link

http://localhost/codeigniter_test/index....comments/1

I have tried to change the

$config['uri_protocol'] = "AUTO";

to every parameter and doesn't work, I have tried to change

$config['base_url'] = "http://localhost/codeigniter_test";

with slash at the end and without... nothing

I have tried to create a comment model and nothing.

this is my comments function in the blog controller

function comments()
{
$data['titlepag'] = 'My Comment Title';
$data['headingpag'] = 'My Comment Heading';

//echo $this->comment_model->test();
$this->load->view('comment_view', $data);
}

It wouldn't be better to have an html updated tutorial than a video outdated tutorial? If somebody can help me I would really appreciate it. I am using XAMPP and Aptana IDE in an Apple environment. Thanks

DB interaction works perfectly fine in the controller but SHOULD be done in the model. It didnt mention it because its not a requirement.

It is perfectly possible to do the 20 minute tutorial in 20 minutes.

Sorry but in my case it didn't work the db interaction... following the tutorial I always get an error using it

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Trying to get property of non-object

Filename: views/blog_view.php

Line Number: 9

Thats why I am using the model

Using a model you are just changing the location of the same code, something else is going wrong here.

Any code?

You've said an error occurred at line 9 of a file .. that you haven't shown us.

Are you loading the database class?

[eluser]soyraro[/eluser]
Yes, I am loading the database class in autoload.php

$autoload['libraries'] = array('database');

Ok I explain what I did... I followed the video tutorial and I founded an error where the tutorial says...

$data['query'] = $this->db->get('entries');

in function index of the controller... when trying to load the blog_view that said

<html>
<head>
<title><?=$titlepag?></title>
</head>
<body>
<h1><?=$headingpag?></h1>

<?php foreach($query as $row): ?>
<h3><?= $row->title ?></h3>
<h3><?= $row->body ?></h3>
<p><?= anchor('blog/comments/' . $row->id ,'Comments') ?></p>
<hr></hr>
<?php endforeach; ?>

</body>
</html>

It said

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Trying to get property of non-object

Filename: views/blog_view.php

Line Number: 9

In every blog entry so I created the blog_model and It worked so I followed the tutorial again till I have found another error about listing the comments (if you read first post)... do you want me to post my files?

Thanks
