I have the following code in a view for my codeigniter application:
<link href="<?php echo APPPATH.'assets/css/bootstrap.min.css'?>" rel="stylesheet">
This is giving me a 404.
However, a few lines down, I tried this to troubleshoot:
<?php echo APPPATH.'assets/css/bootstrap.min.css' ?>
That shows the following path on my webpage:
/var/www/html/testapp/application/assets/css/bootstrap.min.css
If I copy that path and paste it into a new browser window, it returns the contents of my css file.
I'm not sure where I've gone wrong.
Tips?
Try
<link href="<?php echo base_url('assets/css/bootstrap.min.css'); ?>" rel="stylesheet">
(In response to the helpful comment)
base_url() requires the URL Helper to be loaded which can be done one of two ways.
Loaded in a controller
$this->load->helper('url');
Or, set to autoload in /application/config/autoload.php
$autoload['helper'] = array('url');
If the path you get printed by the 2nd line you've given is correct, then it might be the slash at the beginning. So instead of /var/... etc. try make sure it's var/... etc. Solution to your problem might be then as follows:
<?php
$str = APPATH.'assets/css/bootstrap.min.css';
echo substr($str, 1);
?>
The second variable at the substr is the startposition of the new string, so that should get rid of the slash at the beginning. Hope this helps!

I'm using not_found.php file for unfound files on server , and it's in Main Directory
it's style is in 'assests/css/main.css' from same Directory ,
so I make href of linking stylesheet
href="assests/css/main.css"
it works perfect if user types 'Main/wrongFile' for example , but if user typed 'Main/ez/wrongFile' , stylesheet is included wrongly due to changing of path
I'm searching for function like
$Path = FindPath('Main/assests/css/main.css');
so it gets that path wherever file is in
then I can simply
href="<?php echo $Path; ?>"
The best way to fix it is using the code below;
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assests/css/main.css" type="text/css"/>
adding / at beginning of assests/css/main.css simply tells browsers which root directory to look at.
Option 2) Using htaccess. Add the code below into your .htaccess file
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/assests/css/main.css$ assests/css/main.css [R=301,L,NC]
I routed my controller function and suddenly the function name is added to base URL, how can I remove this?
$route['editblog/(:num)']='Code/editblog/$1';
Then all of the sudden edit blogs are added to base URL and my external files are showing an error.
<script src="assests/vendor/slick/slick.min.js">
It shows:
<script src="editblog/assests/vendor/slick/slick.min.js">
Please help me, help will be highly appreciated!
You need to verify 1 things:
application/config.php $config['base_url'] = 'application/path/'; like http://example.com/ or http://localhost/applicationName/
Now you should use urls like
base_url('assets/js/filename/js');
base_url('controller/action/parameters');
In this way, it will generate correct urls.
You should change your URL's to:
<script src="<?php echo base_url('assests/vendor/slick/slick.min.js'); ?>">
Actually base_url is set in your applications/config.php file. -> config['base_url']. It MUST include trailing slash
in your config file:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://test.com';
when you call out the base_url(). You can use this :
<script src="<?= base_url().'/assests/vendor/slick/slick.min.js'; ?>">
Disclaimer: I haven't got a clue what I'm doing with PHP I'm just playing around with it.
I have my css file in a folder named CSS and then my header.php and footer.php in the main site folder. If i include the header.php in other directories I am just using:
<?php include('../header.php'); ?>
I know this isn't the way to do it however I don't know how to configure it probably (with a config.php file etc..) but my issue is, once the header's included in files in any directory of course it will look for the css/main.css file in that folder so I've tried doing the following:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']. '/JAGS/css/main.css' ?>" />
When I use the php line in the body it displays the path
E:/xampp/htdocs/JAGS/css/main.css
but if I use it there in the link tag then doesn't work.
What seems to be my problem other than the fact I'm clueless with PHP. Is there something else I should be using? Is there something I need to do in my xampp config files?
Edit: By "doesn't work" I mean the styles are not being applied.
Edit 2: Inspecting shows the following:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="E:/xamppp/htdocs/JAGS/css/main.css">
I know there's an extra p on the end of xampp, this is actually what I have the folder named. Is it because it's not saying "localhost/JAGS/CSS/main.css"? If so what would be the reason for this?
Edit 3: Console shows error below:
Not allowed to load local resource: file:///E:/xamppp/htdocs/JAGS/css/main.css
Edit 4: Not using Laravel
Thank you
Why do you require the document root, you should just place a dot in front of it and set the base url in a meta tag.
<base href="yourdomain.com">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./JAGS/css/main.css'/>
Okay, so, I have a configuration.php, and in there I have this:
$baseURL = 'http://www.website.com'; (just hiding my site)
On every page I call the configuration.php, and it doesn't matter what directory or page I'm on (yes I'm setting the configuration.php to the correct directory) but I try to make a image link like this:
<img src="<?php echo $baseURL; ?>/images/logo.png">
So that should, when clicked, take me to http://www.website.com. Nope, it takes me to the same page. It's like its overwriting itself... I have nothing overwriting it in my code, it just like sets itself to the current page instead of just http://www.website.com
I'm not sure why you have a config file to declare the value, and by call, I'm guessing you mean include. If you're not using include, could you tell us what you're doing? More code!
config.php
<? $baseURL = "http://" . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']; ?>
Then
<? include "config.php"; ?>
<img src="<? echo $baseURL; ?>/images/logo.png" alt="logo.png"><? echo $baseURL; ?>
Also check for error_log entries related to this, you may find that it tells you exactly what is wrong.
I have make a assets folder in root directory where application folder exist. now I have assets sibling to application.
Now when I tried to open http://localhost/CodeIgniter/assets/css/bootstrap.min.css in web-page it's not working.
Do someone can help me how I can got it worked.
In a solution I found that writing this line in config file will work but it's not work either by doing this change.
$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/CodeIgniter/';
Now please some guideline me how to load CSS file in CI.
solution :-
I have done something wrong in my codeigniter project. I download it again and try these thing again, without anything it's working.
thanks you all of guys. you save my time.
In constant.php:
define('URL','http://localhost/CodeIgniter/');
define('IMG',URL.'assets/img/');
define('CSS',URL.'assets/css/');
define('JS',URL.'assets/js/');
In config.php:
$config['base_url'] = URL;
In view:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo(CSS.'bootstrap.min.css'); ?>">
Hope that helps somewhat.
define general css that used.
Open "config.php" within directory CodeIgniter\system\application\config.
$config['css'] = 'mystyles.css';
Create a file named mystyles.css within root application: \CodeIgniter.
$this->load->helper('url');
$data['css'] = $this->config->item('css');
You can load css in views pages like this.
Add below line in your controller action /application/controllers/yourController.php
$this->load->helper('url');
Then add below line to your view file's head tag.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<? echo base_url('assets/css/yourcssfile.css');?>" />
Assuming that you have assets/css/ folder is created in your app directory.
<path to your app folder>/assets/css
