So how would that look in PHP? Something like? With $dbObject; if(->doConnect()==true) { ->doQuery(); while($row = ->fetchArray())
       { /* do something with returned row */ }
} End With: Just a question from an onlooker. Cheers, BDKR yuk! This would start php down the slippery slope of unreadable code...et all perlisms. no thanks.
Just think of a large block of code and 30 lines down all you had was ->$foo = blah; or ->something('foo') This is high on the yuk meter Yuk
