I want to commend the author for this article. I've done lots of work with PHP but never using object-oriented methods. I've been learning C++ but the concept is sometimes overwhelming until you're used to it.

This tutorial offers a good way to start using objects in something I'm already comfortable in, namely PHP. True, PHP might not be 100% OO but it makes a great stepping stone to learning to do it in other languages.

Thanks for a great article, John!
