Hi,

your problem lies in the fact that typically a class constructor as to have the exact same name as the class.

Thus, if you are now extending the CI_Controller class it's constructor would not be parent::Constructor() but rather parent::CI_Constructor, however you should preferably use parent::__construct.

Hope this helps.

And if your using CodeIgniter 2.0 its like this:

Code:

class Email extends CI_Controller {

function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();

    $this->load->library(‘email’);
}

And you also will need to change the controller it will conflict with the library name Email!
