Hey all,

Ok.. this is my first ever system i'm building using classes and functions. So far i'd say im doing very bloody good with it.

Anyhow, I have a question for you more advanced programmers here.

I have a class called, dbclass lets say. And in that class, I have a function to check if the username exists, a function to grab the persons name, and some other functions.

Then further down, I have a new class, called admin. Obviously extending dbclass.

Now, I have a function on here, called welcome. Pretty simple right? Well, my problem is that i've set $email as a session. And the getname function will grab all the users information where the email is the same as the session email.

So i'm able to get the name of the user no problem.

And all this jargon i'm going on about does infact work. But!, in my welcome function, if I do this...

echo "<h3>Welcome back, <span>" . $this->getUsersName($email) . "</span></h3>";

The users name will go above the welcome back text.. like this,

adam
Welcome back,

Do you need to see some code to see what i mean or is this a straight forward fix?

Thanks in advance.
