Okay, I'm confused. In my book (PHP Programming) it says I can reference variables passed to the function like this: <pre>function func($this->variable)</pre> But this doesn't appear to work. If I want to alter and return $variable, is the only way I can do it like this: <pre>function func($variable) { $this-variable = $variable; }</pre>
