Below is my base class i.e database methods.
// Constructor
public function __construct($argHost, $argUsername, $argPassword, $argDatabase)
{
$this->_host = $argHost;
$this->_username = $argUsername;
$this->_password = $argPassword;
$this->_database = $argDatabase;
}
// Connect to the database
public function Connect()
{
if (!$this->Is_Connected()) {
$this->_connection = mysqli_connect($this->_host,$this->_username,$this->_password,$this->_database);
} else {
return $this->_connection;
}
}
// Run query
public function Run($query)
{
if ($this->result = mysqli_query($this->_connection,$query)) {
return $this->result;
} else {
die("Couldn't perform the request");
}
}
And my child class is categories method below
class Categories extends Database
{
public $category_id = '';
public $category_name = '';
public $category_image = '';
// View Category
public function ViewCategories()
{
return $this->Run("SELECT * FROM categories");
}
}
Now the problem is that when i am running the Run() method by creating object of the base class it is working fine. But when i am creating object object the child class i.e categories and executing the method viewCategories(); i m receiving below errors

<?php
function __autoload($class_name) {
include 'classes/class.'.$class_name . '.php';
}
$connection = new Database("localhost", "raheel", "raheel786", "ecommerce");
$connection->Connect();
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Ecommerce</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$category = new Categories();
