R help - Jul 2011 - spatial logit help

Please I am new to R. I got the following code from a friend: 
 
gmat <- cbind(gmat,p*(1-p)*wxb)
for (j in seq(1:ncol(gmat))) {
  gmat[,j] <- fitted(lm(gmat[,j]~zmat))
}
 
It is for spatial logit.
 
After defining all the matrices in it such as P, wxb, gmat, and zmat,

I tried to run it in R and got the following error message:
Error in model.frame.default(formula = gmat[, j] ~ zmat, drop.unused.levels =
TRUE) :
  invalid type (list) for variable 'zmat'
 
Any help will be appreciated
 
Thanks

R doesn't think zmat is the right class. What does str(zmat) return?  
And for that matter why not include str on all of the objects  
referenced above?
