ellooz,

I know pretty much the basics of php (that leigh thought me in his 20 movies, + 2 applications from dummies) And i tried some things myself, so I think after a while of practicing I'll be up n running my own apps (maybe a lot of practicing ^⁾

But what I want to knoo of you guyzzzz is da following (Sorry, i just played GTA IV and ya gotta love Little Jacob):

What are the best +points according to you in OOP?
Do you think this is the future?
Any other advantages in OOP?
Do you know any good articles about it (and link plz)?
Best place/movies/books/tutorials to learn it?

The same as with any language. Encapsulation, code re-use, easier to do code and presentation separation. Just have a read around, places like wikipedia are not a bad starting point... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_oriented

Yes, I don't know of any new languages of fads that are NOT based on OOP.

Sorta the same question again... Google around, read as much as you can, try things, then ask questions if you get stuck.
