php echo not working in html

Question

This is my first code in php, so my problem might be so obvious. sorry if it is so easy :)

What I'm trying to do is that I am selecting some rows from my data base using

$rrows = Select ( "*" , $tbl_SubForum , null, "p");
$rrows->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_CLASS, 'subForum');

I know this works fine. Each row has the description of a sub forum, containing title and id. I am trying to show sub forum titles in table cells using this code:

 <table cellpadding=50px cellspacing=20px BORDER=0>
<?php
    $i=0; 
    while($rrow = $rrows->fetch()){
    var_dump($rrow);
?>
<tr>
<td class='subforum' id='subforum1'>
<?php echo $rrow["title"]; ?><br>
Sub forum manager<br>
                            
Posts: 200<br>
    Active users: 50<br>
</td>
</tr>
<?php 
    $i++;
}
                    
    ?>

the line echo $rrow["title"]; doesn't work and so the page is empty, except for the result of the first var_dump First var_dump of the first $rrow shows:

enter image description here

as you can see, there actually is a title field in the array and there is only one var_dump so the while loop doesn't work anymore!

why is this happening?

$rrow is an object and not an array; try $rrow->title instead. — Gumbo

Because $rrow is an object rather than an array, you have to use $rrow->title to access its data member.
