use base url    echo  baseurl base url      if you need to pass url to a function then use site url     echo site url  controller function      if you need the root path then  FCPATH    echo FCPATH

Obviously you mean the baseurl  If so      base url  URL to your CodeIgniter root  Typically this will be your   base URL    WITH a trailing slash    Root in codeigniter specifically means that the position where you can append your controller to your url   For example  if the root is  localhost ci installation index php   then to access the mycont controller you should go to localhost ci installation index php mycont   So  instead of writing such a long link you can  after loading  url  helper    replace the term localhost ci installation index php  by base url   and this function will return the same string url   NOTE  if you hadn t appended index php  to your base url in your config php  then if you use base url    it will return something like that localhost ci installation mycont  And that will not work  because you have to access your controllers from index php  instead of that you can place a  htaccess file to your codeigniter installation position  Cope that the below code to it   RewriteEngine On RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -f RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -d RewriteRule         imguplod index php  1  L    And it should work

Codeigniter has a function that retrieves your base path which is   FCPATH and BASEPATH i recommand use FCPATH    for your base url use     lt   base url    gt    if your php short tag is off   lt  php echo base url      gt    for example  if you want to link you css files which is in your base path   lt script src   lt   base url    gt js jquery js  type  text javascript    gt
