Undefined index

Question

I am getting this error:

Notice: Undefined index: kolebro in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/includes.php on line 12

function.php

public function User_Details($uid) 
{
    $username = mysql_real_escape_string($uid);
    $query = mysql_query("SELECT uid, username, sansiti, kolebro AS full_name FROM users WHERE uid = '$uid' AND status = '1'") or die(mysql_error());
    $data = mysql_fetch_array($query);
    return $data;    
}

includes.php

$session_data = $Wall->User_Details($uid);
$session_sansiti = $session_data['sansiti']; // <== Line 12
$session_kolebro = $session_data['kolebro'];

index.php

<?php echo $session_kolebro; ?>
<?php echo $session_sansiti; ?>

Can anyone help me understand (what is causing) this error?

Notice (not an error) says exactly what is going on - your `$session_data` array does not have any value under `kolebro` key. — fracz, Sep 20 '14 at 20:41
I think you function doesnt work since it doesn`t have a connection included. — Mihai, Sep 20 '14 at 20:45
Mihai it's ext/mysql rather than mysqli, so the last connection opened is used regardless of scope. — Michael Berkowski, Sep 20 '14 at 20:47

You're retrieving the database field kolebro using the alias full_name – so $session_data won't have a kolebro index, it'll have one called full_name instead.

Either change $session_data['kolebro'] to $session_data['full_name']
Or remove AS full_name from the MySQL query.

Also, please don't use mysql_* functions in new code. They are no longer maintained and are officially deprecated. See the red box? Learn about prepared statements instead, and use PDO or MySQLi - this article will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, here is a good tutorial.
