Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object

[chromed]

Ok, I'm not sure whether this is the right section, and if it's not please could a mod/admin move please.

I'm getting the following error from a php script

 

Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object 

 

Can somebody please tell me what this means.

Please post your script, it is much easier to read teh script than for someone to explain it.

A common problem: Is $db declared in your script?

yeah $db is in the script, and I only want to know what it means, so I can have a go at fixing it myself

Add above that line:

global $db;

Here's what that means (this is what the tc was asking for folks...)

Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object

somewhere in the code, a function is called by the name of "query();". This function has not been defined.

Sample function definition:

 

function query() {
echo "Our function: query, is now defined.";
}

 

Another way to go about defining it, would be within the context of a class.

If you are using the mccodes vs database class "$db" then the method called "query()" is part of that class.

$db->query();

if you leave out the $db-> and just put query(), or $db is not in the "scope" where you used $db at, then you'll get this error.

Define query(), and you're problem is solved.
