I'm currently learning to use Codeigniter, I'm able to route successfully to the default controller's index method, but when trying to route to another page (e.g. localhost/results), I'm only taken back to the default page but the URL is changed to the new controller or method (e.g. from localhost to localhost/results displays the same page as just localhost).
config.php settings:
$config['base_url'] = '';
$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';
routes.php:
$route['default_controller'] = 'home';
$route['404_override'] = '';
$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = FALSE;
$route['result'] = 'result';
.htaccess page:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#Removes access to the system folder by users.
#Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
#previously this would not have been possible.
#'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
#When your application folder isn't in the system folder
#This snippet prevents user access to the application folder

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

#such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

controller home.php:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Home extends CI_Controller {
public function index()
{
$this->load->view('home_view');
}
}
controller result.php:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Result extends CI_Controller {
public function index()
{
var_dump($this->input->post());
}
}
view home_view.php:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="result" method="post">
<input type="text" name="name" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
So, I wound up just reverting to the older version of Codeigniter. It appears to be working now with the same set up as before. Thank everyone for the responses and help.
