Classes not working on PHP ver: 4.4.9

[Alee_001]

Hi All,

I have built some classes, they were working perfect on my computer and m using PHP 5.2.9 but when i uploaded the files onto the server now they show strange errors while i access the page, i have tried with two different serves on one it doesnt show any thing and the page dies, while on the other server an error is displayed, somewhat like this.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in classes/class.product.php on line 18

I have check the servers are running ver 4.4.9. Is it because of server compatibility and is there any way to overcome this problem.

Using keywords public, protected or private?

M using public!

They didn't exist in PHP 4. Everything was public. So just remove all those publics and you should be "fine", if running PHP 4 can be considered anywhere near fine...

Note that you'll need to define class variables with the "var" keyword instead of any accessibility keyword you might have been using. Also, type-hinting will fail in PHP4.

Of course, the much better solution would be to get yourself onto a host with PHP5 (or get this host to get with the program and upgrade (or at least provide PHP5 via CGI, allowing you to run either).
