[SpiritWebb]

Code: Select all

 $player=$_SESSION('player');

notice the '

I placed the ' in (player), and I still get: Fatal error: Function name must be a string in C:\wamp\www\Mythuto\logout.php on line 4. See code below:

Code: Select all

<?php
include_once 'connect.php';
  session_start();
  $player=$_SESSION('player');

  $lastlogin=$_POST['lastlogin'];
  $datetime=date("d/m/y");

  $SQL="INSERT INTO players (lastlogin)VALUES('$datetime') where name='$_SESSION(player)'";
  $result=mysql_query($SQL) or die("MySql Error");

  session_destroy();

?>

Code: Select all

 $player=$_SESSION('player');

notice the '

Should be:

Code: Select all

$player=$_SESSION['player'];

If you use ( instead of [ it thinks "$_SESSION" is a function, and functions can't start with $, thats why you get the function name is not a string error.

Nice, thanks Falken, granted I have moved on...decided to go with programming the game in flash, and using PHP in the background!! But thanks for that, i will keep that in mind!!
