does the output of print_r() correlate with whats actually
happening? i.e. is the first test1 object not a reference of the
second test1 object (as per the print_r() dump).
what does the following show? (I don't have php4 at hand):
var_dump($test);
also I believe print_r() and var_dump() have a few odditities regarding
display of recursion with regard to objects... internals mailinglist archive
might tell you more on that.
does the following show different output?
<?php
class test1
{
var $data = 'hi', $node = false;
function test1()
{
$this->node =& new test2();
$this->node->root =& $this;
}
}
class test2 { var $data = 'yoyo', $root = false; }
$test =& new test1();
echo "<pre>";
print_r($test); echo "<hr />"; var_dump($test);
echo "</pre>";
?>

go for php5 if you can, you'll have alot more fun with object then :-)
.....no more '&'s for starters.
