unable to create class

[gathy]

Hi guys,

I'v got a bit of a problem, from what I can see everything is ok. But when I try and create an instance of a class it doesn't do anything.

The below code is ment to check all details and then process it i.e. store the user in the db. but it fails at $reg = new register($username, $password);

The code:

PHP Code:
<?php
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$confirmPassword = $_POST['confirmPassword'];

// CHECK IF ALL DETAILS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED
if (!$username) {
errorMessage('Missing username', 'Please enter a username.');
include('templates/registration_form.php');
}
else if (!$password) {
errorMessage('Missing password', 'Please enter a password.');
include('templates/registration_form.php');
}

One reason I can see is that your class name and function name is same i.e register.. try to change the function name and then work over it,

and btw if you are using register function as constructor then you are doing wrong, in php you define constructor as __contruct()

OR first create the object and then call the register function like


PHP Code:
$reg->register($username,$password);

Hope that helps -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Using the class name is still backwards compatible in PHP5 and is the only way to make it work in PHP4 too. Nothing wrong with tha -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
