Did you load URL helper in controller or in autoload? and echo this $this->load->helper('url'); — Johnny X. Lemonade, Jan 31 '13 at 10:05

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>`

I was missing echo/print make sure you combine with site_url() – wired00 Mar 16 '14 at 06:16

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

Try base url

 <a href="<?=base_url("news")?>" > Back to Main </a>

base url return's without any further pages
