site_url() is not work properly in codeigniter framework

Question

following work not work properly for codeigniter framework...

Its my View:

<?php
echo '<h2>'.$news_item['title'].'</h2>';
echo $news_item['text']."</br></br>";
?>
<a href="<?php site_url("news"); ?>" > Back to Main </a></br></br>

Answer 1

You should have loaded the url_helper in your controller construct method or in the function that calls your view like this $this->load->helper('url') and then in your view you should echo the site_url()

<a href="<?php echo site_url("news"); ?>" > Back to Main </a></br></br>`

Answer 2

Did u load url helper

Did u specify the site_url in config file... ->Returns your site URL, as specified in your config file. The index.php file (or whatever you have set as your site index_page in your config file) will be added to the URL, as will any URI segments you pass to the function, and the url_suffix as set in your config file.

If not working try with base_url
