Getting "Class HTML not found" error in Laravel 4

Question

Working on a new project in Laravel 4 (a.k.a Illuminate) I'm trying to create the link to the style sheet in my master.blade.php template like so:

    {{ HTML::style('css\style.css') }}

But this throws an error saying the class HTML wasn't found. Has it been removed or renamed in Laravel 4, or am I forgetting anything else?

Answer 1

The generator type classes such as HTML:: and Form:: have been removed from L4 for best practice reasons. It would be better to render as tag using the path() method to link the attribute :

<link href="{{ path('to/my/style.css') }}" />

They may be added in later for backwards compatibility, we will see. Please remember that L4 is currently in an alpha state.

Answer 2

They just bring it back in Apr 02, 2013, But use Html instead HTML

eg. {{ Html::style('css\style.css') }} (now they change it again, this is not working anymore)

Refer: Add missing HTML::script and HTML::style

Update : Its "HTML" again!!! (Thanks @milad-rey)

for now please use this {{ HTML::style('css\style.css') }}

Refer: Updates for the rename of the HTML facade.
