Why can't I show my pagination links in my CodeIgniter app?

Hello all,

I'm developing this app on CodeIgniter. I want to have a pagination system. I've provided my codes below. The thing is, after initializing my pagination and echoing my pagination links, I don't get any links! The DIV is empty. can you help me solve this? It's so important to me.

Here's my Pagination Initialization function:

<?php
public function init($uri,$total_rows,$per_page=5,$segment=3){
           $this->load->library('pagination');
           $config['per_page'] = $per_page;
           $config['uri_segment'] = $segment;
           $config['base_url'] = base_url().$uri;
           $config['total_rows'] = $total_rows;
           $config['use_page_numbers'] = TRUE;
           $config['full_tag_open'] = '<ul class="pagination">';
           $config['full_tag_close'] = '</ul>';
           $config['first_link'] = 'First';
           $config['first_tag_open'] = '<li>';
           $config['first_tag_close'] = '</li>';
           $config['last_link'] = 'Last';
           $config['last_tag_open'] = '<li>';
           $config['last_tag_close'] = '</li>';
           $config['cur_tag_open'] = '<li class="active"><a>';
           $config['cur_tag_close'] = '</a></li>';
           $config['num_tag_open'] = '<li>';
           $config['num_tag_close'] = '</li>';
           $config['next_tag_open'] = '<li>';
           $config['next_tag_close'] = '</li>';
           $config['prev_tag_open'] = '<li>';
           $config['prev_tag_close'] = '</li>';
           $this->pagination->initialize($config);
           return $config;    
       }

Here's my pagination function in my controller

<?php
$data['pagination'] = $this->init("blog/index",round(count($data['posts'])/5, 0, PHP_ROUND_HALF_UP),5,3);

I doubt there would be anyone on this forum that can help you

you'd be better off asking this in a codeigniter forum community
