OOP: fatal error with an array of objects

[PeterF]

Hello,

what is wrong here? the purpose is to create an array of objects and then
interate over it,
calling some method from all of them.
I get just the following at the marked line ("// FATAL ERROR"):
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object
See the code:
thank you for any hellpful hints!

<?php

$out="<h1>test for array input</h1><hr>";

$obj1=new Test ("FIRST");
$obj2=new Test ("SECOND");
$obj3=new Test ("THIRD");

//$array1=array($obj1, $obj2);
$array1[]=$obj1;
$array1[]=$obj2;

$out.="Listing with for: <br><br>";

for ($i=0;$i<sizeof ($array1);$i++)
{
$k=$array[$i];
$out.="calling name, i=$i: ".$k->toString(); // FATAL ERROR
}
class Test
{
var $name;
function Test ($name)
{

$this->name=$name;
}
function toString()
{
return "my name is: ".$this->name;
}

}

?>

Sorry, there was not the right code,

hier is it:
My real problem is adding a label element to a normal array, like this:
$array1[]=array("new"=>$obj3);

it works but then $obj3 seems to be corrupt
(Fatal error: call to a member func. of a non-obj)

<?php

$out="<h1>test for array input</h1><hr>";

$obj1=new Test ("FIRST");
$obj2=new Test ("SECOND");
$obj3=new Test ("THIRD");

//$array1=array($obj1, $obj2);
$array1[]=$obj1;
$array1[]=$obj2;

//$array1=array_merge ($array1, $p=array("dritter"=>$obj3));
$array1[]=array("new"=>$obj3);
$out.="Listing with for: <br><br>";
reset ($array1);
for ($i=0;$i<sizeof ($array1);$i++){
$k=$array1[$i];
$out.="calling name, i=$i: ".$k->toString()."<br>";
}

echo $out;

class Test {
var $name;
function Test ($name){

$this->name=$name;
}
function toString(){

return "my name is: ".$this->name;
}

}

?>

<?php

$out="<h1>test for array input</h1><hr>";

$obj1=new Test ("FIRST");
$obj2=new Test ("SECOND");
$obj3=new Test ("THIRD");

//$array1=array($obj1, $obj2);

This line isn't doing what you think it's doing, you are inserting an
array into $array1[2] which contains an object. Hence the error below

$out.="Listing with for: <br><br>";
reset ($array1);
for ($i=0;$i<sizeof ($array1);$i++){
$k=$array1[$i];
$out.="calling name, i=$i: ".$k->toString()."<br>";
}
Here you call the toString() method which in the case of $array1[2] is
trying to call the method of an array as opposed to that of a Test
object.

Place a print_r($k) after $k=$array1[$i]; and run the code, then try
again with the line $array1[]=array("new"=>$obj3); commented out to see
what I mean.
echo $out;

class Test {
var $name;
function Test ($name){

$this->name=$name;
}
function toString(){

return "my name is: ".$this->name;
}

}

?>

I hope this helps.

What you need is

$array1['new'] = $obj3;

and

foreach($array1 as $k) {
}

instead of the for() loop.
