[RESOLVED] hi I need help urgently

[gotornot]

Hi i need real help ive been dumped in the poop by my ex developer.

I am a coder but only a basic one I have this being shown below:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/adcentre/lib/class.ad-connector.php on line 359

this is the function it is talking about:

function ad_status($id)
	{
		$id = (int)$id;

	$q = 'SELECT status FROM advert WHERE id = '.$id;
	$this->db->safe_query($q, __FUNCTION__, __LINE__);

	if (!$this->db->num_rows())
	{
		return ADCON_STATUS_ABSENT;
	}

	$status = $this->db->result();

	if ($status == 1)
	{
		return ADCON_STATUS_ACTIVE;
	}

	return ADCON_STATUS_SUSPENDED;
}

Any ideas?????

Find a new PHP developer? shrug

It would help to know which line is #359, but my guess is that it's one of the lines involving $db. If so, that probably means $db isn't an object (perhaps boolean FALSE instead) in which case you'll have to look at why a) $db was never initialized with a database object, or b) why said initialization failed.

It's hard to debug an OOP-related problem without knowing how the whole structure of things was setup (hence my suggestion to find a new PHP developer 😛).
