Re: Help on objects

Hi, I'm trying to lay my hands on PHP OOP, but it's not easy :( I've read several examples in the web, but cannot transpose to may case. I'm trying to set a class to make SQL inserts in mysql. I have the class: --------------------------------------------------------- <?php class dBInsert { // global variables var $first; // constructor function dBInsert($table, $sql) { $this->table = $table; $this->sql = $sql; return(TRUE); } // function that constructs the sql and inserts it into the database function InsertDB($sql) {

    print($sql);
    // connect to MySQL
    $conn->debug=1;
    $conn = &ADONewConnection('mysql');
    $conn->PConnect('localhost', 'deckard', 'ble', 'wordlife');

        if ($conn->Execute($sql) === false)
        print 'error inserting: '.$conn->ErrorMsg().'<BR>';

        return (TRUE);

} } -------------------------------------------------------------------- and the code that calls it: -------------------------------------------------------------------- <?php include_once("classes/dBInsert.php"); $sql = "INSERT INTO wl_admins VALUES ('',2)"; $dBInsert = new dBInsert('wl_admins', '$sql'); $dBInsert->InsertDB('$sql'); ?> -------------------------------------------------------------------- but it's not working ? Can anyone give me a hand here ? I've read the manuals, examples, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

IMO it's cleaner and more efficient than adodb. Then, I believe what you're trying to make is a query builder. I would break down the differente parts of an sql query and create abstractions for each part (some can be reused on different types of queries), then have builder create the queries abstractions from the different parts.
