Question

I met a problem when Call to a member function combinestring() on a non-object.

**Index.php**
inlcude("string.php");
calldata('usa');


**string.php**
$a=new a();
funciton calldata($val){
$st1="select a from table 1 where country=".$a->combinestring($val);
return $st1;
}

**Class A**
function combinestring($abc){
   Return "'".$abc."'";
}

Unknow $a->combinestring($val);

How to solve this problem.

Best Regards

You’re getting error

Call to a member function combinestring() on a non-object

because you are calling a member function on the variable that is not an object. That means $a is not an object.

In string.php , you cannot use $a inside function definition because variable has local scope. You cannot access that object instance like that. You can however do this by using global variable.

Your string.php file should be like this:

$a=new a();
funciton calldata($val){
   global $a;
   $st1="select a from table 1 where country=".$a->combinestring($val);
   return $st1;
}
