You may also find the following helpful:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.classobj.php (class/object functions)
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.reflection.php (Reflection
API)
Also note, in PHP4, classes have lower case names when you use
get_class(), even if defined with upper case letters. ie: MyClass =>
myclass.
In PHP5, it stays the same as declared.
Typo by Wayne: instanceof is available in PHP5, not PHP4.
Also be aware of differences between how objects are handled in PHP5 vs
PHP4.
PHP5 treats them more like java, they are all passed by reference.
PHP4 copies them all over the place (thus the use for $o = & new
Object() );
Search around in the manual and user comments for more specific and
detailed information.
