I am trying a simple code igniter hello world tutorial but keep getting this error and don't know why.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS in C:\xampp\htdocs\loxxbylisa\application\controllers\helloworld.php on line 3

<? php

    class HelloWorld extend CI_Controller {

    public function index(){
            $this->load->view('helloworld');
        }

    }

?>

I am running it in XAMPP and my helloworld.php in views folder is just the text "hello world". Any suggestions?

The only thing that jumps out at me right now is you have a space between your opening 

class HelloWorld extends CI_Controller

Notice the "s" at the end of extend. Should be extends. http://php.net/manual/en/keyword.extends.php

Please use this code it will work for you.. In controller ...you have use wrong spelling of extend...it should be extends

<?php

    class HelloWorld extends CI_Controller {

        public function index(){
            $this->load->view('helloworld');
        }

    }

?>

Create a view in the views with the name helloworld.php
