Passing a class through an array

Hey all, I'm very new to programming and PHP. I want to pass instances of a class through an array, and then use a foreach later to grab details of each class at once... but it returns a fatal error Code: $me = new Toon('Toon1','1') $him = new Toon('Toon2','0') $characterListing = array($me, $him); foreach ($characterListing as $name1) { if ($name1->GetIsPlayer()) { echo "<b>Name: </b> ".$name1->$name;//.... etc etc etc } } the error I get is: Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyProjects\SecondOffering\htmlFns.php on line 140 Can anyone help? Thanks, Jeff
