php fluentpdo -> Undefined variable: fpdo - php

Question

I am confused with the include stuff i think, I don't know where exactly its wrong.
The Connection file with fluentpdo
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/Mark20/libs/FluentPDO/FluentPDO.php');
$pdo = new PDO("mysql:dbname=ummah", "pluto","admin");
$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_WARNING);
$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_CASE, PDO::CASE_LOWER);
$fpdo = new FluentPDO($pdo);
//~ $software->debug = true;
?>
if i am using to insert data like this as below:
Insert.php
<?php
include '../connect.inc.php';
function inReg(){
try{
$values = array('name' 'xyz', 'pwd' => '1234');
$query = $fpdo->insertInto('users')->values($values)->execute();
echo 'success';
return;
}catch (Exception $e) {
die ('File did not upload: ' . $e->getMessage());
}
}
?>
Not a problem with above stuff, its just in a php file. What I am trying to do is use a class as i did below:
Connection file is same.
DBInsert.php
<?php
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/Mark20/bin/connect.inc.php');
class DBInsert {
function Insert($table, $values){
try{
$query = $fpdo->insertInto($table)->values($values)->execute();
return 'success';
}catch (Exception $e) {
die ('File did not upload: ' . $e->getMessage());
}
}
}
?>
now i am creating object of above class and trying to call the Insert function like this:
Test.php
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/Mark20/bin/dao/DBInsert.php');
function Signup(){
$values = array('name' => 'xyz', 'pwd' => '1234');
$db = new DBInsert();
echo $db->Insert('users',$values);
}
Signup();
?>
So when i am accessing Test.php i am getting the following error:
Notice: Undefined variable: fpdo in E:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\Mark20\bin\dao\DBInsert.php on line 15
Fatal error: Call to a member function insertInto() on a non-object in
E:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\Mark20\bin\dao\DBInsert.php on line 15
I am new to php, not totally new also :). So a little help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

Global variables are not in scope in functions by default. You need to do:
function inReg(){
global $fpdo;
try{
$values = array('name' 'xyz', 'pwd' => '1234');
$query = $fpdo->insertInto('users')->values($values)->execute();
echo 'success';
return;
}catch (Exception $e) {
die ('File did not upload: ' . $e->getMessage());
}
}
or pass $fpdo as a parameter to the function.
