    copied!<p>In a fresh installation of codeigniter 2.1.3 I have a controller 'home.php' with two functions:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed'); class Home extends CI_Controller { public function index() { $this-&gt;load-&gt;view('home'); } public function homefunction() { $this-&gt;load-&gt;view('homefunction'); } } </code></pre> <p>I have a view 'home.php'. The anchors represent the menu:</p> <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;Home&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;a href="home"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="home/homefunction"&gt;Home Function&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>and a view 'homefunction.php'</p> <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;Function in the Home controller&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;a href="home"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="home/homefunction"&gt;Home Function&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>my routes:</p> <pre><code>$route['default_controller'] = "home"; </code></pre> <p>I have 'eliminated' index.php from the URL with .htaccess and config.php my .htaccess is:</p> <pre><code>RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /test/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [PT,L] </code></pre> <p>in the config.php file I have set:</p> <pre><code>$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/test'; $config['index_page'] = ''; </code></pre> <p>Now I run <code>http://localhost/test</code> and my home page loads with the menu. The url in the browser is <code>localhost/test/</code>. Then I click the 'Home' anchor menu item the url in the browser becomes <code>localhost/test/home</code>. I click the other menu item 'Home Function' the home function page loads and the url becomes <code>localhost/test/home/homefunction</code>. In the menu of the home function view I click the 'home' item and the url becomes <code>localhost/test/home/home</code>. <strong>I was expecting to become</strong> <code>localhost/test/home</code>. Then I click the menu item 'Home Function' the home function view is not loading and the url becomes <code>localhost/test/home/home/homefunction</code>, the homefunction page is <strong>not</strong> loading I click again home and I get in the url <code>localhost/test/home/home/home</code> and this goes on each time I click home function menu item and then home menu item a home section is added in the url.</p> <p>I know it is something simple that maybe has to do with routing but I' stuck and I can't find a similar problem with google. Can anyone help?</p>
