OO Public problem

split58

I am trying to get to grips with OO php and am trying out some tutorials from a book. I seem to be having a problem declaring all my variables and functions as public. If I do then I get the following error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in c:\create\nat_test\06\page.php on line 5

If I remove all the occurences of public then it works fine.

Please can someone explain what's going wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Natalie

it would be easire to help by seeing your code, but initially it appears that you're using PHP 4, and it does not have private vars, all vars are public, and must be declared using var, not public.

I'd have to see the code to confirm
