Hey,

This my first time trying to use the database entry of chronoforms
ok i have created tables and done the database connection in the admin part.

when i try to submit the form i get this error
Fatal error: Call to a member function bind() on a non-object in C:\xampp\htdocs\joomla\components\com_chronocontact\chronocontact.php(569) : eval()'d code on line 10
Any1 help me out, i have searched here and came tried a few things that have been said but no luck.

Hi Benny,

Most often this is caused by invalid field names. Please check that your field names:
[list]

Use only a-z, A-Z, 0-9 and '_'

Have no spaces, '- / ? : , ( ) ' or other special characters

Start with a letter and not a number

Have quotes around them like name="field_name"

[/list]

Bob

Thanks for the reply Bob

Are we talking about the field names in the autogenerated code tab? or the field name on the form itself, i tried making several new forms and same error comes up.

cause it saying something about line 10 in the chronocontact.php file do i need to look at this file?

Here is my chronocontact.php file

or is it the chronocontact.html.php?

[[>> file deleted : GreyHead <<]]

Hi Benny,

Line 569 is

eval( "?>".$rows[0]->autogenerated );

so the problem is on line 10 of the Autogenerated code.

Bob

PS I deleted the file you attached as it's no longer needed in the thread.

O ok i dont know what the autogenerated code does, here it is, my php is very limited, any chance of taking a quick look for me?

<?php
		if($paramsvalues->dbconnection == "Yes"){			
			$row =& JTable::getInstance("chronoforms_db3", "Table");
			srand((double)microtime()*10000);
			$inum	=	"I" . substr(base64_encode(md5(rand())), 0, 16);
			$_POST["recordtime"] 	= JRequest::getVar( "recordtime", date("Y-m-d")." - ".date("H:i:s"), "post", "string", "" );
			$_POST["ipaddress"] 	= JRequest::getVar( "ipaddress", $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"], "post", "string", "" );
			$_POST["uid"] 	= JRequest::getVar( "uid", $inum, "post", "string", "" );
			$post = JRequest::get( "post" , JREQUEST_ALLOWRAW );			
			if (!$row->bind( $post )) {
				echo "<script> alert('".$row->getError()."'); window.history.go(-1); </script>\n";
				exit();
			}				
			if (!$row->store()) {
				echo "<script> alert('".$row->getError()."'); window.history.go(-1); </script>\n";
				exit();
			}			
		}
		?>
		

Thanks🙂

Tried debugging in dreamweaver came up with this error ".$row->getError()." java script error, weather it is relavent or not.

Hi Benny,

Line 10 is

if (!$row->bind( $post )) {

An error here means that Joomla wasn't able to match up the fields in your form with the columns in the chronoforms_db3 database table. Again, this is usually becasue of a problem with bad field names.

Bob

Thanks for all your help so far Bob

Ah ok i got it to an other page now

now this error
You are not allowed to access this URL directly, POST array is empty
is this because i have done something to the fields?

all i did was put " around the part where it goes name=code_1
and turned it in "name=code_1"

and the form field name in the autogenerated code tab is empty. when i remove the " it comes back, and wont let me put one there by itself

i have tried to move the " around but i get the other error again

Hi Benny,

I'm not quite sure where you are making the changes but almost certainly that should be name="code_1" (quotes around the name value only).

Bob

ah ok i have made the changed like that
im just trying a very simple from to try it but i still get the line 10 error

<DIV class="form_item"   >
<DIV class="form_element cf_textbox" ><LABEL class="cf_label" >Edit</LABEL><INPUT class="cf_inputbox" id="code_1"  maxLength="150" size="30" name="code_1" ></DIV>
<DIV class="clear" > </DIV></DIV>
<DIV class="form_item"   >
<DIV class="form_element cf_button" ><INPUT  type="submit" value="Submit" ></DIV>
<DIV class="clear" > </DIV></DIV>

Thats the code there, i just made it with the wizard. but does not work

Thanks for helping me out im a real amatuer with this stuff.

Hi Benny,

Do you know what the column/field names are in your database table?

You can see them with PHPMyAdmin if you are familiar with it, or the EasySQL Joomla extension is good too.

Bob

Hi Benny,

it looks like this is not V3.0 Stable!! which is why you are keep falling into issues, you should upgrade to V3.0 stable first then we can look into those issues because simple they will not happen!

Cheers

Max

Wow the stable version works a charm, i was scared that it was going to break stuff, but everything works on it,

Thanks for trying to get it working Bob.

Thanks once again Max for helping me

Ok, great! Thanks!
