Facebook API Fatal Error

I am getting the following error with some code that I am using. The error is

[Mon Jun 27 16:44:04 2011] [error] [client 194.116.198.179] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function api() on a non-object in /public_html/users/fbmain.php on line 89

The code I am using worked ok before I made it into a function. Line 89 begins with $statusUpdate.

function post_basic_status($msg){
    try {
        $statusUpdate = $facebook->api("/$user/feed", 'post', array('message'=> $msg));
    } catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
        d($e);
    }
}

From looking online I cannot find any solution to this. IS there anything glaringly wrong with this

Solution

  • I've had the same issue... until your post about calling the api from a function. It turns our that Facebook API doesn't like to be used in a function. It needs to be called on page load.
