Hi, I've just written the class below to simply automate form building, but this is my first real attempt at using PHP Classes and for some reason it's not showing anything. This is the code I've giving on the main page, and below that is the class file. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great.
I'm using PHP Version 5.1.4 on Apache2 showing EVERY warning, if that helps.

require('includes/formfactory.class.php');
$title = "Add image to image database";
/* Removing this code for the sake of viewing
$db = new database;
$db->connect_db();*/
$form = new formfactory;
$form->textBox("Test1:", "test_1", "Chicken");
$form->textBox("Test2:", "test_2", "Chicken Soup");
$form->textBox("Test3:", "test_3", "Chicken Poot");
$form->textBox("Test4:", "test_4", "Poot poot...");
$form->submitButton("Submit", "submit", "Send it all!");

foreach($this->formElement as $element)
{

}
echo "</div>\n</form>\n";
}
}

Thanks in advance!
