How can this be a non-object?

[Anon]

I really like PHP, but I miss the debugging abilities of PERL.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------include_once ("kwoon.php");
$newKwoon = new kwoon();
$retval = $newKwoon->kwoonVerify($kwoonname, $password, $activation);
// test for retval
if (strlen($retval) > 1) {
$myoutput = new output();
// display error page
$myoutput->dispError($retval);
exit;
}
$newKwoon->kwoonByName($kwoonname);

//The infamous line 119 below

$newKwoon->kwoonActivate($kwoonname);

Running this results in the last line ($newKwoon->kwoonActivate) giving this error

---

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/virtual/dragonslist/home/httpd/html/fun/game/signup.php on line 119

How can $newKwoon, that has been initialized and used twice already before this line, suddently become a non-object?

Maybe I just don't understand the error message

newKwoon->kwoonActivate()

propbably isnt a valid function. double check that.

look into.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-class-methods.php

print_r(get_class_methods('Kwoon'));

Thanks for the reply, and I must admit this one has me stumped.

I initially thought the same thing and trimmed the function so now it is just:

// set activation flag and kwoon defaults
function kwoonActivate() {
echo "test";
}

BTW - I still have the same problem.
