I'm having a problem with telling the user what item(s) they're getting. In short a random item is chosen from a list of items and given to the user. Whenever I try to get the name of the item I get an error. Here's the shortened version of the code:
PHP Code:
$random = mt_rand(1,3);
$Cnum = mt_rand(1,5);
switch ($Cnum){
case 1: $Citem = "ball"; break; //Common items
case 2: $Citem = "ball"; break;
case 3: $Citem = "ball"; break;
case 4: $Citem = "ball"; break;
case 5: $Citem = "ball"; break;
}
if($random == 1){
$newitem1 = new StockItem($Citem);
$newitem1->append(1, $mysidia->user->username);
$document->add(new Comment("Congratulations! You earned a {$newitem1}!"));
return;
}
(For testing purposes, the only item is a ball. The error also appears if the number is 2 or 3)
If I just get {$Citem} as the item name then it works fine, but I want the words to match the items given, not be randomly chosen.
