Type casting was available as of PHP4, however it might be the new PHP5 keywords causing the error, even though I would expect an "Unexpected T_STRING" insted

That error came up on a php 4.3.11 server. Afterwards, I saw that server doesn't accept remote access for file(), file_exists(), is_file() or filesize() functions (allow_url_fopen is "On" though)

It had sometihng to do with the format of the class call:
threw the error on that server, while there is no error anymore after changing it to:
As you can see, it works fine now on Latest Developing version - phpMyChat-Plus (4.3.11 server)

PS: does anyone know what could be the disabled setting which makes file, file_exists, filesize and is_file not to work with remote files? They work just fine with local files though...

I made some minor changes to this script as it's so popular. Could you please report any bugs in this thread. Thank you!

After thinking it over again I remember why the error comes up, it was because PHP4 didn't support method chaining.

Good stuff Adam :)

Ok I m a newbee to this php thing.
Can someone tell me more clearly how do I set this up?
I have this placed on my html page.
<img src="<?php echo $pAvatar->getAvatar(); ?>" alt="Gravatar" />
Do I have to link it to this code somehow? How do I do that?
$pAvatar = new TalkPHP_Gravatar();

echo $pAvatar -> setEmail('example@example.com')
-> setSize(80)
-> setRating(GRAVATAR_RATING_PG)
-> getAvatar();
Is the above code supposed to be on a seperate php document within my site and what is that document supposed to be called?

Very nice, sketchMedia!

You need to place the code in a file that ends in the extension .php to begin with. After that, include the main file like so:


Then set the details for the avatar you wish to bring back using the following code:


Where the email address (adam@talkphp.com) is the email address of the user corresponding to their Gravatar account, and size is the pixels square. Finally, still in a file ending in .php add an image to the page which will use the information set above to display the correct image:


I hope this helps you. If not, please do keep asking questions!
