I'm absolutely stumped by this.

The file include/util.php.inc looks like this:
Code Select


function get_player_name($pid)
{
   $db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password');
   mysql_select_db('pongstats', $db);
   $result = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM players WHERE id=$pid");
   $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
   return $row['name'];
}

function get_player_id($player_name)
{
   $db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password');
   mysql_select_db('pongstats', $db);
   $result = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM players WHERE name='$player_name'");
   $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
   return $row['id'];
}

// ... more stuff


The file viewplayer.php looks like this, as I want to be able to lookup players by name as well as id.

Code Select

<html>
<head>
<title>test page</title>
<body>
<?phpinclude('./include/util.php.inc');$player_name = $_GET['name'];$id = $_GET['id'];if (!is_null($id)){      $player_name = get_player_name($id);}else if (!is_null($player_name)){   $id = get_player_id($player_name);}// more stuff


When I reference it like so: viewplayer.php?id=1 it works great.  But when I do this: viewplayer.php?name=Foo, it complains:

Quote
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_player_id() in /home/ledbettj/projects/web/pongtracker/viewplayer.php on line 20

Now, if I copy and paste the function get_player_id($player_name) into viewplayer.php, it works great.

Why can it locate get_player_name, but not get_player_id?

<?php ?>
Grif: Yeah, and the people in the red states are mad because the people in the blue states are mean to them and want them to pay money for roads and schools instead of cool things like NASCAR and shotguns.  Also, there's something about ketchup in there.

Not sure what you're getting at.  I have those tags in the include file (I also tried it without them with the same result).  I took them out of my post to avoid the terrible coloring that you see on the second code block.

Turns out I'm just dumb.  I was modifying "util.php" which I had copied to "util.php.inc" earlier.

Gah.

You didn't show them (in the include), and I've been known to do it..so I figured...
