<p>Returns your site URL, as specified in your config file. The index.php
file (or whatever you have set as your site <strong>index_page</strong> in your config
file) will be added to the URL, as will any URI segments you pass to the
function, plus the <strong>url_suffix</strong> as set in your config file.</p>
<p>You are encouraged to use this function any time you need to generate a
local URL so that your pages become more portable in the event your URL
changes.</p>
<p>Segments can be optionally passed to the function as a string or an
array. Here is a string example:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nx">site_url</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;news/local/123&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The above example would return something like:
<em>http://example.com/index.php/news/local/123</em></p>
<p>Here is an example of segments passed as an array:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$segments</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">array</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;news&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;local&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;123&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>

<p>Returns your site base URL, as specified in your config file. Example:</p>

</div>
<p>This function returns the same thing as <a class="reference internal" href="#site_url" title="site_url"><code class="xref php php-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">site_url()</span></code></a>, without
the <em>index_page</em> or <em>url_suffix</em> being appended.</p>
<p>Also like <a class="reference internal" href="#site_url" title="site_url"><code class="xref php php-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">site_url()</span></code></a>, you can supply segments as a string or
an array. Here is a string example:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nx">base_url</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;blog/post/123&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The above example would return something like:
<em>http://example.com/blog/post/123</em></p>
<p>This is useful because unlike <a class="reference internal" href="#site_url" title="site_url"><code class="xref php php-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">site_url()</span></code></a>, you can supply a
string to a file, such as an image or stylesheet. For example:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nx">base_url</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;images/icons/edit.png&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This would give you something like:

<p>The first parameter can contain any segments you wish appended to the
URL. As with the <a class="reference internal" href="#site_url" title="site_url"><code class="xref php php-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">site_url()</span></code></a> function above, segments can
be a string or an array.</p>

<p>Does a “header redirect” to the URI specified. If you specify the full
site URL that link will be built, but for local links simply providing
the URI segments to the controller you want to direct to will create the
link. The function will build the URL based on your config file values.</p>
<p>The optional second parameter allows you to force a particular redirection
method. The available methods are <strong>auto</strong>, <strong>location</strong> and <strong>refresh</strong>,
with location being faster but less reliable on IIS servers.
The default is <strong>auto</strong>, which will attempt to intelligently choose the
method based on the server environment.</p>
<p>The optional third parameter allows you to send a specific HTTP Response
Code - this could be used for example to create 301 redirects for search
engine purposes. The default Response Code is 302. The third parameter is
<em>only</em> available with <strong>location</strong> redirects, and not <em>refresh</em>. Examples:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">if</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="nv">$logged_in</span> <span class="o">==</span> <span class="k">FALSE</span><span class="p">)</span>
