PHP SIMPLE DOM PDO select - php

Question

I have in the database a list of links from which I want to take some data.
All the script is working, except the part when I'm taking the link from the DB and paste it in Simple DOM function.
"
include ('utile/db.php');
include_once('utile/simple_html_dom.php');
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$dbname;charset=utf8;", $username, $password);
$sth = $dbh->query("SELECT link FROM pilots where year = '2007' and Contry ='CZ' and zboruri <> '101' limit 3 ");
foreach ($sth as $url) {
functie ($url['link']);
}
function functie($lin){
$linkul=file_get_html("$lin");
// pages number
$paging = $linkul->find('div[class*=paging]',0);
echo $paging;
$numar=-4;
foreach($paging->find('a') as $element=>$item){$numar++;}
echo $numar;
}
"
I receive the following error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function find() on null in C:\xampp\htdocs\para\teste.php on line 269
If I change the link manually it will work.
I think it is something related how I extract the link from DB and insert it the function.
Thank you

The issue with fetchALL in foreach.
The line changed:
foreach($sth->fetchAll() as $url){
The final code that is working:
include ('utile/db.php');
include_once('utile/simple_html_dom.php');
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$dbname;charset=utf8;", $username, $password);
$sth = $dbh->query("SELECT link FROM pilots where zboruri > '101' limit 3");
foreach($sth->fetchAll() as $url){
functie ($url['link']);
}
function functie($lin){
var_dump($lin);
$linkul=file_get_html("$lin");
$paging = $linkul->find('div[class*=paging]',0);// pages number
echo $paging;
$numar=-4;
foreach($paging->find('a') as $element=>$item){$numar++;}
echo $numar;
}
Thank you for advices.

When I use PDO I use prepared statements, so the syntax on getting the result of the query is a little different... but I think that you need to fetch a row from your $sth since it would be a record set. Here's a snippit of what I do
$dbconn = new PDO('mysql:host='.$hostname.';port='.$dbPort.';dbname='.$dbName.';charset=utf8', $dbuser, $dbpass,array(PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_FOUND_ROWS => true));
$dbconn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$result=$dbconn->prepare($query);
$result->execute($arr);
if(!$result){
// do your error handling, result is either false
// for error or contains a recordset
$errorMessage=$dbconn->errorInfo();
}
$result->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
while($row=$result->fetch()){
// do stuff here, $row is an associative array w/ the
//keys being the column titles in your db table
print_r($row);
}
