[SOLVED] Function problem ?

[nesiak]

Hello there, i'm new to this forum as i am new to PHP!

 

This is my code that will output the number of comments and number of posts in a blog i'm trying to create. It doesn't output anything why?

 

<?php
function nofcom() 
{
$filee = fopen("comments.php", "r") or exit("Can't open comments file");
//Comments are all one line in height
while(!feof($filee))
  {
  fgets($filee);
  $i++;
  }
fclose($filee);
$nofcom == $i;
echo "Total comments : $nofcom .";
}

function nofart()
{
$filew = fopen("posts.php", "r") or exit("Can't open news file !");
//A star (*) is marking a beggining of a another post 
while(!feof($filew))
  {
  fgetc($filew); 
  if (fgetc($filew)=="*")
{
  $o++;
}  
}
fclose($filew);
$nofcom == $i;
echo "Ukupno komentara : $nofcom .";
}
?>

 

Please help

$nofcom == $i;

 

Should be...

 

$nofcom = $i;

noup still doesn't output anything ?

 

(i'm using this with include() maybe i'm using it wrong?)

 

<p class="style2"><?php include("status.php") ?></p>

 

There was a another error in my posted code, fixed it too and still it won't output anything to the page ?

 

<?php
function nofcom() 
{
$filee = fopen("comments.php", "are") or exit("Can't open comments file");
//Comments are all one line in height
while(!feof($filee))
  {
  fgets($filee);
  $i++;
  }
fclose($filee);
$nofcom = $i;
echo "Total comments : $nofcom .";
}

function nofart()
{
$filew = fopen("posts.php", "are") or exit("Can't open news file !");
//A star (*) is marking a beggining of a another post 
while(!feof($filew))
  {
  fgetc($filew); 
  if (fgetc($filew)=="*")
{
  $o++;
}  
}
fclose($filew);
$nofart = $o;
echo "Total articles : $nofcom .";
}
?>

no... you still have

$nofcom == $i;

$nofart == $o;

 

them ==s need to be =

I fixed those (typo)

 

It should at least output "Total articles :", but it doesn't ?

I dont see you actually call these functions anywhere. Function dont run by themselves, they need to be called. eg;

 

<?php

  function foo() {
    echo "this is foo";
  }

  // call the function.
  foo();

?>
