Re: Include help

Where is $DB_dotBanner instantiated? It seems to me that the object is declared in the file that's working, but when you go to include the include file in a *different* file, $DB_dotBanner hasn't been declared, thus you get an error saying it's a "non-object" - ie, you haven't created an object of the class, and it has no idea what object $DB_dotBanner is supposed to be. Find where you're creating $DB_dotBanner and see if you can put it, too, in the include file so any file you include the include file in will have access to it.
