SORRY I THINK THIS IS THE ONE WITH THE ERROR - AND THE error is this ----

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_user_by_id() in /home/findan/public_html/old/cont/user.php on line 1

Maq · March 31, 2009

K, this is the wrong code because the function, "get_user_by_id()", isn't called in your code.

Use code formatting tags! (the icon with the# sign)

lesterdan · March 31, 2009

Mate thanks for your reply erm he said this ---- All the functions are being called from.

includes/pagefunctions.php

lonewolf217 · March 31, 2009

thats great, but nowhere in your supplied code do you include that page so that is probably why you are getting your error

unless of course you still aren't posting the relevant code

Maq · March 31, 2009

Mate thanks for your reply erm he said this ---- All the functions are being called from.

includes/pagefunctions.php

erm? I don't understand. Your error says you're not calling that function but I did ctr+f for "get_user_by_id()" and it doesn't exist anywhere on this thread except the error message.

THE GUY SAID CHECK THIS LOL I THINK THIS IS CALLED THE PROCESS LOGIN AND HE SAID CAN U HAVE A LOOK AT LINE 12? CHEERS

lonewolf217 · March 31, 2009

you STILL aren't using the [code ] tags, and you STILL aren't posting the correct code.

why dont you have this programmer of yours post here instead of being the intermediary because this is going nowhere fast

premiso · March 31, 2009

THE GUY SAID CHECK THIS LOL I THINK THIS IS CALLED THE PROCESS LOGIN AND HE SAID CAN U HAVE A LOOK AT LINE 12? CHEERS

Why not have him debug this. You are just posting random bits of code, not even posting the code in the

tags like you have been asked several times before.

My bet is, you do not have the functions file being included on user.php given that the error is thrown on line 1, you could not. You have to include the functions file that holds the definitions of the functions before you can use those functions.

Maq · March 31, 2009

HE SAID CAN U HAVE A LOOK AT LINE 12? CHEERS

Line 12: }

Looks fine to me...

lesterdan · March 31, 2009

sorry guys the programer is logining in now so you can talk sense! casue i am soooo confused! lol cheers

PFMaBiSmAd · March 31, 2009

lesterdan, the only way someone can help you is if you provide accurate and relevant information. So far you have failed to do that.

The error message states in which file the error is occurring. Start by posting the actual error message (I have my doubts that the error posted above in this thread is accurate.) Then post the file that the error message states the error is occurring in.
