The problem comes in from where you are trying to load the resources, try this instead:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php echo site_url('css/style.css'); ?>" />

Also here is my .htaccess file, it looks like it accomplished the same thing and is more concise. Not necessary but I thought I'd share :0

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|css|js|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L]

You should load the url helper in order to use site_url() & base_utl()

<head>
<base href="<?php echo base_url()?>" />

<link href="css/my.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" />
<link href="css/test.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" />
</head>
<body>
<div>
<img src="images/something.jpg" alt="" title="" />
</div>
</body>

perhaps there is a problem with .htaccess? because when i view my url via source. they seem to be okey and yet css is not loading

You should install firebug.
There's an option (disabled by default) for inspecting all files loaded by the page.

Try this too:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /meeting
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|javascript|css|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L]

(Excuse my english!)

Also your missing the semicolon!

Code:
&lt;base href="&lt;?php echo base_url();?&gt;" /&gt;

1. What is your base url config, and how you access your default controller. I mean, how your url looks like : is it like "http://localhost/ci_project_folder/" or "http://local.myproject.com"...

2. How you access your css, what the full url to access it...

I should have used the [c ode ][/c ode] blocks Sad

BTW PHP closing tags have an implicit end of command.
