Greetings all.
Having a problem with the CI tutorial on the 'creating news' section.
I have followed along with the instructions and all went well until that section. I can view the 'index.php', the 'about.php', the 'news.php', and even the 'create php'. When I fill out the form fields and submit, I am directed to php's 404 and not the 404 within codeigniter.
my thoughts are the routing is correct as I can view the pages that I point the browser to. The DB(mysql) is configured correctly as I can view the seed entries that I installed via the 'news.php view.
I have been through the forums here to see where my error could lie, have been through the CI user_guide, have been to the barber to have my hair re-glued into place.
Here is my Success view (where I recieve a 404 error message upon submit.)
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Create News Item-CodeIgniter 2 Tutorial</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>CodeIgniter 2 Tutorial</h1>
<h2>Create a News Item</h2>
<form action="http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.php/news/create" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
<label for="title">Title</label>
<input type="text" name="title" /><br/><!--To trouble shoot at a later point in time!!!
Input "type" ??input or text. I think type="input" is invalid here. Changed to "text" for time being. Check helper->form(on this one) -->
<label for="text">Text</label>
<textarea name="text"></textarea><br/>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Create News Item" />
</form>

Any help would be most appreciated.
I am installed on c:/easyphp/www/, but think that my paths are are in the correct order.
My coding history in a nutshell--> I can write 'Hello World' multiple times.
