The `link_tag()` helper is clearly the way to do this. Put your css where it usually belongs, in site_root/css/ and then use the helper:

From [The CodeIgniter docs...][1]

echo link_tag('css/mystyles.css');

Output

<link href="http://example.com/css/mystyles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I'm using the latest version of CodeIgniter 3.1.0.
The folder structure of it is:

- system
- application
- user_guide
- assets
- images
- js
- css

That's where you should put the images, css and js files inside the assets folder.

I have a setup like this:

- application
- system
- assets
- js
- imgs
- css

I then have a helper function that simply returns the full path to this depending on my setup, something similar to:

**application/helpers/utility_helper.php:**

function asset_url(){
return base_url().'assets/';
}

I will usually keep common routines similar to this in the same file and autoload it with codeigniter's autoload configuration.

> Note: autoload URL helper for `base_url()` access.

**application/config/autoload.php:**

$autoload['helper'] = array('url','utility');

You will then have access to `asset_url()` throughout your code.

you can put the css folder inside the assest folder(you name it any name) in the directory of your project as:
<br/>

- ci_app
- application
- views
- assets
- css
- style.css

...
when you want to load that file in a page, you can use base_url()function as this way:
`<head>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='<?php echo base_url();?>assets/css/style.css'>
</head>`
and you are sure to add base_url of your project in the config.php file as this:

$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/ci_app';

I just wanted to add that the problem may be even simpler -

I've been scratching my head for hours with this problem - I have read all the solutions, nothing worked. Then I managed to check the actual file name.

I had "`image.jpg.jpg`" rather than "`image.jpg`".

If you use `$ ls public/..path to image assets../` you can quickly check the file names.

Sounds stupid but I never thought to look at something so simple as file name given the all the technical advice here.
