Re: learning classes not sure how to do this correctly

I'm not sure if it matters or not, but this is happening on the page that you are sent to from hitting the submit button from the other page...test.php is a form that sends you to test2.php after hitting the submit button and its test2.php page that is having this issue with the $keclass. with that on test2.php if i use var_dump($keclass) i get *'Notice*: Undefined variable: keclass' and *'Fatal error*: Call to a member function on a non-object' on any $keclass -> function call witch makes since, but if i try to declare the class in test2.php with var_dump($keclass) i get object(keclass)(0) but i get *Fatal error*: Cannot redeclare class keclass. so i guess that information changes the question down to why is it saying that i am redeclaring $keclass when it hasnt been declared in that page before? is it something do to with test.php when u hit submit and being redirected to test2.php? If this dosnt really make any sense let me know..i have been told serveal times in the past i dont really explain my self well hehe Richard Lynch wrote:

var_dump($keclass); It's not an object... On Thu, December 14, 2006 9:16 am, macha@kingdomsend.com wrote:

just starting to get used to classes, trying to figure out what i am doing wrong, i know its going to be something stupid on my part, probably really shouldn't be using a if statement or something heh just doing a basic email verification to make sure its looks like email addy so i take the post to a var PHP Code: $email_address = $_POST['email_address']; run it through this function in my class PHP Code: function check_email($address){

        if

(ereg('^[a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+$', $address))

            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }

and then if true i want it to continue on with the script or error out and quit back to the other page and display the error. so i have tried something like this and stuff similar but get a error Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in PHP Code: if (!$keclass->check_email($email_address)) {

    $keclass->seterr(555);
    include('test.php');
    exit();

} $keclass->seterr(000); include('test.php'); exit(); the seterr is just a simple thing that takes the number and puts in a session var for latter display... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
