error:

<br /> <b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function dodmg() in <b>/www/uuuq.com/n/i/n/nindoway/htdocs/class_nin.php</b> on line <b>217</b><br />


problem:


as you can see i clearly defined the doDmg() function. i'm not sure exactly why it's saying the function isn't defined.

note that i'm calling the function using AJAX. could that be factor?

They're type sensitive, from the looks of the error you are calling it as 'dodmg()' rather than 'doDmg()'

i checked that at first i thought maybe i made a mistake somewhere but i don't think that it's it. reason beign it worked at first. then i rearranged a few things now it doesn.t

It would help if you told us what you re-arranged.

[The Seventh Hoka...]

there's thousands of lines of code. basically. im designing a webpage that simulates an rpg battle. at suggestion i decided to use object oriented php coding.

in an effort to minimize the code i would have to write i created functions and included the functions where they were needed, the thing is, because the files were all on seperate pages, simply including them didn't work.

for instance if i create an object in one page and try to access it's properties on another page that included said objects definitions... it wouldn't work for me.

I've fallen back into a combination of using session variables with the objects to achieve the desired effect and thereby save me anymore of a head ache.
