RE: [PHP] A Newbie needs help with his first Class

Don's original declaration is correct.  It refers to a constructor.  Without
a parameter, the new() will fail.

And then replace

$global = new Globals("/staging_area/phase-2/");

with

$global = new Globals;
$global->someting else("/staging_area/phase-2/");

Hi,

Try and rename the function in your class to something else that the class
name, and let me know what happens!

Hi,

I'm trying to write my first class.  Here is the code contained in a file
called "globals.php":

<?PHP
class Globals
{
  var $gDISPLAY  = 1;        /* Display graphic - no rollover */
  var $gROLLOVER = 2;     /* Display graphic with rollover */
  var $root_path;                /* Path to document root directory */
  var $relative_path;            /* Path from document root to relative root
directory */

  function Globals($start_dir)
  {
    if ( strlen($DOCUMENT_ROOT) == 0) {
       $this->$root_path = "/";
    } else {
       $this->$root_path = $DOCUMENT_ROOT;
    }
    $this->$relative_path = $this->$root_path . $start_dir;
  }
}

$global = new Globals("/staging_area/phase-2/");
?>


Within my html page, I am tesing the class by trying the following:
<?php
require("globals.php");
echo $global->root_path . "<br>";
echo $global->relative_path . "<br>";
?>

However, nothing is being written to my browser.  Is there a problem with
the code?

Thanks,.
Don
