This should be really simple but I cannot work it out.
This is my error.
Quote:Fatal error: Call to a member function update() on a non-object in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/wpp/admin/system/application/controllers/pages.php on line 65
This is my code.
Code:
65. $this->db->update($this->jdb->table, $this->db, "id='$id'");The database library is loaded, I can add pages to my site, I can list pages. For some reason, when I run this update function I get the error. Its pretty late where I am, maybe my brain is a bit fried but I have been staring at this for ages and cannot see what is wrong.

The database is available in the other contexts, but is it for some reason unavailable in this context?
It is odd to me that you have $this->db as a second parameter. There is a good chance you are mistakenly overwriting the $this->db reference to the Database class with your own data.

If you have a constructor, are you calling the parent one? If not, it won't have any idea what $this->db is

*sigh*
Thanks a lot guys. Completely overlooked the fact that the db variable would overwrite the function. I needed the db variable to be availible to whole class and thus just added a $this-> in front of it.. Duh
