Codeigniter
Please install Codeigniter and work through the following tutorials: https://codeigniter.com/user_guide/tutorial/index.html
External files (images, css files, js files)
First make sure your base URL is populated in your config.php file, so for example for me:
$config['base_url']='http://mi-linux.wlv.ac.uk/~in9352/codeigniter/';
Then upload your files in your "codeigniter" folder, or in suitable sub-folders (codeigniter/images, codeigniter/css and codeigniter/js). Do NOT upload the files into your codeigniter/application folder or any of its sub folders.
In the example below I have uploaded an image and a CSS file at the following locations:
- codeigniter/css/style.css
- codeigniter/funnycat.jpg
Finally use the "Base URL" helper in your view:
<?$this->load->helper('url');?>
<html>
<head>
<title><?php echo $title ?> - CodeIgniter 2 Tutorial</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?=base_url("css/style.css")?>">
</head>
<body>
<h1>CodeIgniter 2 Tutorial</h1>
<p>
<img src="<?=base_url("funnycat.jpg")?>">
</p>
