Using $this

[frozenmafia]

Thanks pal but now I get:

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/frozen01/public_html/classeswgradients.php  on line 777.

 

776    /*** a line of text ***/

777    $text = $this->username;

Using $this when not in object context

 

You cannot use $this-> unless you are in a class/object. Is the code you posted part of a class?

[frozenmafia]

yeah it is in a classes.php where everything works off. It works everywhere else in the code

That really doesn't answer the question. Just because the file is named classes.php doesn't mean anything. Is that line in a properly declared CLASS.

 

Example:

<?php
class Time
{
  var $sTime;

  function GenerateCurrentTime(){
    $this->sTime = gmdate("d-m-Y H:i:s");
    return $this->sTime;
  }
}
?>

[frozenmafia]

in that case, no it isn't other than username been declared BEFORE the function and it works everywhere else.

As suspected, your problem is a scope problem. You're trying to use $this inside of the gradient function, it is not defined there. Read about variable scopes here.

 

Why are you even using OOP in the first place? You're not using it in any way shape or form that would give you an advantage. It's a horrible implementation, all you're doing is packing everything inside the constructor of the object.
