Fatal error: Call to undefined method

[mallen]

class MyDisplay 
{

function displayToday()
	{
		
		$today = "Thursday";
		{
		echo $today;
		}
		
		
	}
function displayTomorrow()
	{
		
		$tomorrow = "Friday";
		{
		echo $tomorrow;
		}
		
		
	}

}


$disp = new MyDisplay();


echo $disp->displayToday();
echo displayTomorrow();//fails is I have $disp->

I simplified my code for explanation. One class with two methods. When I try to use the method I get this error. Fatal error: Call to undefined method MyDisplay::displayTomorrow()

echo displayTomorrow() has to fail as you've showed it. It has to be written just like your displayToday call.

 

Question. Why the extra braces in each of your methods?

[mallen]

If I type it just like this

echo $disp->displayTomorrow();

I get Fatal error: Call to undefined method MyDisplay::displayTomorrow()

$disp->displayTomorrow();

Works for me.

[ginerjm]

Why don't you show us that code that fails.

[mac_gyver]

your posted code, with the last line change to echo $disp->displayTomorrow();, runs correctly.

 

we will need to see the actual code that produces the error in order to help you with what is wrong with it. you either have a spelling or scope or conditional definition problem.

[Maq]

1) You need to use the object you instantiated to invoke that method.

2) You don't need to echo if you are echoing in your function.

3) As ginerjm mentioned, you don't need those extra curly braces in your methods.

Thanks. I just tested that sample code I posted and saw that it worked. Now I need to know why is doesn't on my project. They is just too much to post here. Something must be conflicting. Works without $disp->

[ginerjm]

Can you show the snippet that "works without $disp.>". It would be very interesting to see what you think is working.

They is just too much to post here

 

 

if you have a class definition that contains too much code to post, you are doing something wrong. the only code that's relevant is the class definition, the code making an instance of that class, and the code where you are calling the method/getting the error.

[ginerjm]

I asked for a 'snippet'. Not the whole code.

[mallen]

I got it solved. I was adding methods below the closing bracket of the class.
