Parse Error - Unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR

I'm trying to run a script and it's throwing the following error:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in openfile.php on line 41
  2.  
Here is the openfile.php file and I have bolded line 41. Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Devereaux. Welcome to The Scripts!

Are you sure the result you are getting from the wpup_upGetType() function is a valid object? Is it possible that is returns something else, like say false if it fails?

Also, please use [code] tags when posting code. It is impossible to read it without them.

Thanks so much for the reply. I must admit I'm a bit of a hack with PHP so forgive my lack of true expertise. However, I'm fairly positive of the result. The function itself is in uploader_functions.php and is as follows:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. /*
  2. * Funtion used to get all the details of a file by the given id
  3. * @param id of the file type
  4. * @return array contaninning all the details of the given file type
  5. */
  6. function wpup_upGetType($id){
  7.   global $wpdb, $table_prefix;
  8.   return $type = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT *
  9.                               FROM ".$table_prefix."type
  10.                               WHERE id = ".$id."
  11.                               ;");
  12. }
  13.  
Sorry about not using the code tags before. I am using PHP 4.4.4, Apache 1.3.37 and MySQL 4.1.22

If there is more that I can do to help debug please let me know and I will work through that. Thanks again!!!

Alright I resolved my own issue. The single line of code had to be split into to lines as shown below in the new openfile.php file. Thanks for taking a look though - much appreciated!

Well, this doesn't work after all - it does but it's inconsistent. The files will open but only some of the time. :-) Very strange....

I see.

Are you getting any errors?

Try checking it the $result object has a value for 'extName'.

  1. print_r($result);
