RE: [PHP] OOP and PHP4 (PHP4 vs. Java)

As a supplement to this good question, has anyone ever developed a site with a "business object layer" in the middle of it - ie if we're talking about a shopping cart, you'd have a Cart object and an Item object etc etc? What are/would be the benefits and drawbacks of doing this? Cheers.
