I'm new to PHP programming, so please excuse what may be a simple question. I'm trying to customize a piece of code that's included with a popular PHP program, but am running into roadblocks. Can anyone tell me what the operator "->" near the beginning of the line of code below does? Is it an operator, or something else completely?
$db->sql_query("INSERT INTO ".$user_prefix."_pendingusers (user_id, username, user_email, user_password, user_name_first, user_name_last) VALUES (NULL, '$username', '$user_email', '$user_password', 'user_name_first', '$user_name_last')");
