Fatal error: Call to undefined function base_url()

hey,

if i use

Code:

<?php echo base_url();?>

i get the error message
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function base_url() in blabla on line blabla"

Why? do if have to load something? what did i wrong?

Maybe load the url helper:

Code:

<?php $this->load->helper('url');?>

Load it at the beginning of your controller or autoload it or something...
See if that helps. Otherwise, I'm not sure...
