Hi there, I have search everywhere for a similar problem or example and cannot find one that helps my code to work. It is a really basic family tree webpage. I am building it as my learning platform. Following is the PHP code I am using: <?php $link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'MY_DB', 'MY_PASSWORD'); if (!$link) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } class treeClass { public $rowstart = "1"; public $mother = ""; public function fillpoolLrg() { $loopResult = ''; $events = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM pikiconz_data.tangata WHERE id = '$rowstart'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($events)) { $loopResult .= ' <div class="poolLrg pool">'.$row['name'].'</div>'; $mother = $row['mother']; } echo $loopResult; return $mother; } public function fillMedPb2() { $loopResult = ''; $events = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM pikiconz_data.tangata WHERE id = '$mother'"); if($row = mysql_fetch_array($events)) { $loopResult .= ' <div class="poolMed pool">'.$row['name'].'</div>'; } else { $loopResult .= ' <div class="poolMed pool">'.'ADD'.'</br>'.'PERSON'.'</div>'; } echo $loopResult; } } ?> So, for the life of me I just can not get this code to display the div that is in the function. It works if I remove the class.. just not WITH the class.. I have looked everywhere and can not help but think it is either something really simple OR I am using classes in a completely erroneous way. Any help, thoughts or general advice on where to head for answers would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance. Castor
