Defined class becomes undefined

[Phil Powell]

[PHP]
class OptionsView extends PaginationView {

/**
* Constructor
*
* @access public
*/
function OptionsView() {} // CONSTRUCTOR

}
[/PHP]

This class exists in the same script as both the parent class
PaginationView and its child class AlbumOptionsView.. both
AlbumOptionsView and PaginationView seem to exist with no problem,
however, if I do this:

[PHP]
class AlbumOptionsView extends OptionsView {
//
}
[/PHP]

I get this error:

Fatal error: Class albumoptionsview: Cannot inherit from undefined
class optionsview in /catalog/include/classes.inc.php on line 105

Could someone shed some light onto this? How can a class be undefined
in the same instance as its parent and child?

You have got

class OptionsView extends PaginationView {

but where is class PaginationView defined?

You must define a class before you can extend it.
