Class problem

Anon

I just stated using classes with php.. I got this really strange error message:
Parse error: parse error, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION' orT_FUNCTION' or T_VAR' or'}'' in /home/m/mobajla/include/adduser/ClassAdduser.php on line 5

This is from ClassAdduser:
<?
Class Adduser
{
//Hämta funktionerna SendErrorMsg() och SendStatusMsg()
include("../include/EchoPageMessage/EchoPageMessage.php");

	//Funktionen slumpar fram ett bra lösenord
	function MakePassword()
	{

Can't you inlude files while definig a class?

The error message is saying that you can only have variable and function declarations within a class. Any other statement, even an include or require, will cause this error.

You can do the include outside of the class declaration or within a function in the class. Or, if your include file only declares variables and/or functions, you could turn it into a class itself and then inherit from it or use it as a class object.

HTH,

can i set a variable within my class to an environment variable: eg.

class foo {
var $h = $HTTP__HOST;
}

Yes, but if you set it to to a non-constant value, you have to do that in a constructor:

class foo {
var $h;
function foo() {
$h = $HTTP__HOST;
}
}

For more info, look at the "Note" in:
