Change the second line of your code to

private $idgen;

and voila! 🙂

BTW it’s worth setting error reporting on; it really helps debugging.

You can do it by editing the php.ini file or adding this somewhere in your project:

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL | E_STRICT);
ini_set('display_errors', 'On'); // <-- change this to off when live.

Put this in a file with other settings and include it in every page.
