simple php class code

[prezident]

This is a simple php class code it worked for me before but i don't know what's wrong with it now

This is a little test code to help me understand classes alittle better and i can't get it to work grrrr

 

class person {
    private $name;
    
    function setname($name){
        $this->name=$name;
    }
    function getname($name){
        return $this->$name;
    }
};

$prezident = new person();
$prezident->setname('prezident');

$dayday = new person();
$dayday->setname('dayday');

print $dayday->getname()."<br/>";
print $prezident->getname()."<br/>";

When referencing properties of a class you don't use the $ sign, so change this:

 

return $this->$name;

 

to

 

return $this->name;

[prezident]

Thank Guy

It kills me when the problem is as simple as a $ or not closing a bracket.....

Works perfectly fine now...
