Comment on Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in … by tony

thanks frank! actually, the loop works fine unless I click to submit a comment. I define $author later in the code as a string so when it comes back to this part I think it still thinks it’s a string. I added $author=array(); and it seemed to sort things out. Now I’ve moved on to the main problem of the comment not inserting into the database!

Tony,

Do the following
echo $author[$row['user_nicename']]; //to see what you get

I am guessing that it is already set as a string previously and that is why you are getting this “cannot use string offset as an array” error.

Maybe it’s appearing that way before it’s approved?
Here is a smaller piece of code:
$res = mysql_query($qry);
if ($res) {
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
$author[$row['user_nicename']][] = $row; <–this line
}

Ah man I don’t know what happened. Here is the code:

$v) {
$orderbydate[$v[0]['post_date']][$k] = $v;
}

krsort($orderbydate);
foreach ($orderbydate as $k => $v) {
ksort($orderbydate[$k], SORT_STRING);
}
}

Frank you are a saint to help everyone like this. Can you take a look at this piece of code? I noted the line I get the error from. The code runs fine at outputting the main page but when I try to submit a comment, I get the offset error on that line. It’s a wordpress custom theme, I left off the rest of the code as it is loops for outputting the posts. (I think ) Thanks

$v) {
$orderbydate[$v[0]['post_date']][$k] = $v;
}

krsort($orderbydate);
foreach ($orderbydate as $k => $v) {
ksort($orderbydate[$k], SORT_STRING);
}
}

running
echo “xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true” > .vmware/config
on the client side seemed to have worked for me. After that i could actually navigate through the vm bios. thanks.

Jake, try using single quotes around your string literals like ['TempToken']. Use them in both the creation of the array and retrieving an element from the array. That is one problem that I can identify immediately.

I am having a similar error.

Using
$client = new MyFunction($authToken, $billerID);
$result = $client->GetTempToken(’3488178870172224′, “John Doe”, “120″, “Y”);

I am trying to pull $result['result']['TempToken'] from the generated array below:

Array
(
[result] => Array
(
[ResultCode] => 00
[ResultMessage] =>
[ResultValue] => SUCCESS
[TempToken] => eb41d070-5f17-408f-aae7-09d0b971cc421b9fc5fe-490f-4cc6-8454-e99a658cf783
[PayerId] => 1234567890123456
[CredentialId] => 811884
)
)

I dont know if it matters, but I also try pulling $result['result']['ExternalID'] from the following generated array and it works fine.

Array
(
[result] => Array
(
[ResultCode] => 00
[ResultMessage] =>
[ResultValue] => SUCCESS
[ExternalID] => 1234567890123456
)
)

Since the ExternalID array works, I am at a loss as to why the TempToken array doesn’t work. I have tried running them as separate files with static content but I cannot seem to get it to work…

Any ideas?
Thanks

Russell, thanks for the catch. I added code tags to prevent WP from messing up the “x”.
