Why is this constructor failing to load in Code Igniter?

Question

I\'m trying to create a constructor in Code

Answer 1

It should be this...

<?php
class Blog extends CI_Controller {

    function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
    }

}

The tutorial you are probably going through is based on 1.7.2 which had a core of php4 which did not use the php5 __construct() method of building Class constructors. Codeigniter 2.0.0 has a php5 core and uses it.
