Re: query behaving funny

Since I have Session already started in the pages, I decided to use session instead of global and the error is gone. I did a print of the $_session['$endt'] but had only one record as the output, infact the last row. This is how I used the session
php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. $endt =array(0 => "value");
  2.  
  3. elseif (!$count=0)
  4. {
  5. while ($e_row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  6. {
  7. $status = 'busy';
  8. // print the list into a table
  9. echo "<tr>";
  10. echo "<td>" . $e_row['fName'] . $e_row['lName'] . "</td>";
  11. echo "<td>" . $e_row['event_date'] . "</td>";
  12. echo "<td>" . $e_row['timeStart'] . "</td>";
  13. echo "<td>" . $e_row['agenda'] . "</td>";
  14. echo "<td>" . $status ."</td>";
  15.  
  16. // $_SESSION array to accept 'event' emp_no & timeEnd
  17. //global $endt;
  18. //$endt=array($e_row['emp_no'] => $e_row['timeEnd']);
  19. $_SESSION['$endt']= array($e_row['emp_no'] => $e_row['timeEnd']);
  20. }
  21. }

Should it have been like this?
php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. // $_SESSION array to accept 'event' emp_no & timeEnd
  2. global $endt;
  3. $endt=array($e_row['emp_no'] => $e_row['timeEnd']);
  4. //$_SESSION['$endt']= array($e_row['emp_no'] => $e_row['timeEnd']);
  5. $_SESSION['$endt']= $endt;

add_time() function call::
Even though the function has been declared just beneath the function call statement, it still gives fatal error.

  1. function max_time()

  3. // find out the highest figure in the array for the timeEnd, then add 100 for the next hour
  4. //$_SESSION['$endt']= array($e_row['emp_no'] => $e_row['timeEnd']);
  5. //foreach ($_SESSION['$endt'] as $key => $val)
  6. FOREACH($_SESSION['$endt'] as $key => $val)
  7. {
  8. if ($val == max($_SESSION['$endt']))
  9. {
  10. $_SESSION['my_key'] = $key;
  11. }
  12. }
  13.  
  14. add_time();
  15. }
  16.  
  17. function add_time()
  18. {
  19. // increase the time to 1 hour forward
  20. $_SESSION['my_key'] = $_SESSION['my_key'] + 100;
  21.  
  22. if ($_SESSION['my_key'] > 1700)
  23. {
  24. // discard scan plus writing record - pass control to abandon
  25.  
  26. }elseif ($_SESSION['my_key']<= 1700)
  27. {
  28. // do the new scan
  29. scan();
  30. }
  31. }

Re: query behaving funny

I am posting the entire code, I tried to comment out the function call for add_time(); however, another function was next reported. can somebody look at the code below and offer advise?

Re: query behaving funny

Ahh ok. So these function are class methods?
To call a method you have to do: $object->method() , rather than just: method() So in your case, change the: add_time(); call to: $this->add_time();
Also, one thing I don't really get.
You have a $_SESSION['$endt'] variable.
What exactly is that?

This seems strange, because it looks like you are trying to using the value of the $endt variable as the key, but you are surrounding it with single-quotes, which makes it literally use the text $endt as the key value rather the the value of the $endt variable.

If you add a var_dump($_SESSION['$endt']); in your max_time function, before the foreach loop, what does that output?

Re: query behaving funny

I have done the correction and inserted var_dump($_SESSION['$endt']);

unfortunately there is an error::
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Mfix::write_meet()

from this line
php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. if ($crazy==0)
  2. { // insert record into event
  3. $this->write_meet();
  4. }elseif($crazy>0)

$this->write_meet(); is causing the error. Very strange as the other class methods call functions are working, at lest they haven't shown an error yet.

Re: query behaving funny

Where is that piece of code located? Inside the Mfix class?

Does the Mfix class have a write_meet() method?

Re: query behaving funny

That makes no sense.

PHP says: Call to undefined method Mfix::write_meet() . Therefore, Mfix does not have a write_meet method.
PHP does not lie.

Make sure the spelling is correct and that you didn't accidentally put the method into the wrong place.

I am posting the Mfix class

  68. etc
  69. }
  70. function popup()
  71. {
  72. // after pressing ok send control to meeting for change of date.
  73. etc
  74. }
  75. }
  76. }

I just copied the whole class and deleted the logic since it was taken up much space - just wanted to show the calling methods and the functions as they are.
