Just a correction of Jerry's post. As of php 5 the __constructor method was
made available BUT the old constructor name is still useable.

The class you are actually using (mysqli) does in fact use a contructor
called mysqli as the following code snippet will demonstrate if you run it:-

<?php
function output_methods($obj)
{
$methods = get_class_methods($obj);
foreach ($methods as $method)
{
echo "function $method()\n";
}
}

output_methods("mysqli");
?>
