Indeed PHP4 passes objects by value (thus creates new instances), which
has been changed in PHP5. To pass references in PHP4 use the & character:
// & in function declaration to return reference
function &getTextBoxByID($sID) {
return $this->m_oTextBoxes[$sID];
}
// & before parameter to pass it by reference
// & with = to assign reference
function addTextBox(&$oTextBox) {
$this->m_oTextBoxes[$oTextBox->getID()] =& $oTextBox;
}
