It's a straight forward fix. You're using an echo statement inside of getUsersName(), correct? Instead of echoing the data, put it in a variable, and return it at the end of the function. Then it will work properly, and will allow you to do any of the following:

PHP Code:


			
$variable = $this->getUsersName(); // return to another var
echo $this->getUsersName(); // echo it directly
echo 'some string'.$this->getUsersName().'end of string'; // echo it within a string

-m
