I would like to know a constructor function is also inherited to a child
class.
I mean the child class also needs to have a constructor function but it
must
have the same name as the class name.
How does that work?

FYI ... anything below PHP5 has a pseudo constructor. Since you are
inheriting the class the 'constructor' for the parent class should work.
If it doesn't (I have not tested it, and neither have you)then the class
extension can contain a 'contstructor' that is a duplicate of the parent
class 'constructor' but with the extension name. You'll have to test it
to make sure.
