getting a new error... well new for me :p

[rhyno]

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/..../includes/header.php on line 6

is the result of my code... line 6 looks like this

$view=new View();
$view->SetFolderlevel(0);

and the setfolderlevel function with in the class looks like this...

function SetFolderlevel($newFolderlevel)

{$this->folderlevel = new $newFolderlevel;}

function GetFolderlevel()

{	$folderPath ="";

	for($i=0; $i<$this->folderlevel; $i++) $folderPath .="../";

	return $folderPath;

}

Any ideas on this one?

Maybe you meant to do:

 

{$this->folderlevel = $newFolderlevel;}

 

Having the "new" in there and the 0 (zero) value you were passing it, was trying to force PHP to create a new class object called 0. i.e.  {$this->folderlevel = new 0();} which is not possible/correct.

 

FYI:

 

For your second method (function), you don't need to do a loop when you can use str_repeat(). Example:

 

function GetFolderlevel() {

 

    return str_repeat('../', $this->folderlevel);

}

even with your help I am still getting the

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/chry7248/public_html/staging/includes/header.php on line 6

error message when trying to run the script....

Always post current code (as it really is being executed) and identify line 6.

 

You're obviously not showing us all the code since the part you did post at first belongs inside a class and we don't see the definition of the class.

Sorry about that... but I have figured out the issue... Thank you for the reply as it has 'enlightened' me for future posts.

You're embedding functions inside functions inside classes.

I think you need to rethink what you're doing and why.

He's not. Look carefully at the starting and closing curly braces. One function is NOT inside the other.
