Whilst php is definitely not a true object-orientated language, it certainly does contain characteristics that experienced programmers can take advantage of. Those that are well versed in other languages such as C++ or Java should feel right at home here. The aim of this article is not to explain what object-orientation is, rather describe an implementation of a common procedure that would benefit from it. There are many fine documents on the theory of object-orientation, and our goal here is not to reinvent the wheel.
