Hi there, I just upgraded from php4 to php5 and now i'm getting the "Catchable fatal error: Object of class upload could not be converted to string in ..."

Here's my code indicated with the error. (any help is appreciated)

          

for ( $i=1 ; $i<13; $i++ ) {

//error starts below            

        $products_subimage.$i = new upload('products_subimage'.$i);
        $products_subimage.$i->set_destination(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES);
        if ($products_subimage.$i->parse() && $products_subimage.$i->save()) {
          $products_subimage.$i_name = $products_subimage.$i->filename;
        } else {
          $products_subimage.$i_name = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_previous_subimage'.$i]) ? $HTTP_POST_VARS['products_previous_subimage'.$i] : '');
        }          

          }

    Try changing with:

    $object = $products_subimage . $i;
$object2 = $products_subimage. $i_name; // or did you actually want $object2 = $products_subimage . $i . "_name" ?

//and then: $object->... $object2->...

    And give the whole error string (modify the "sensible" information, if you want). You don't want me to answer "Sure, the solution is: you make a concatenation with...".

      $products_subimage.$i = new upload('products_subimage'.$i);
$products_subimage.$i->

      here is your problem you set products_subimage.$i as an object then try to convert it to a string inside the function.

        nevvermind, your code saves the day (or week). thank you!

          jgetner, thanks for your input. i kind of get what i did wrong but the weird thing is that it worked fine in php4.
