[PHP] Re: newbie OOP?

[John Gray]

I think it's always worth it to at least design using OO methodologies. 
The coding moves much faster and is much easier to maintain, in my 
experience. A couple of books I've read recently that I'd recommend:

The Object-Oriented Thought Process by Matt Weisfeld and Bill McCarty
Design Patterns Explained: A New Perspective on Object-Oriented Design 
by Alan Shalloway and James R. Trott

If you approach the small sites as ways to add objects to your toolbox, 
you'll end up with reusable objects that are continually refined as you 
use them in new ways. (imho)

Hiya

I am new to PHP and was wondering whether to develop small applications 
(20 pages ) is it worth it to use OOP?  Can any recommend any books or 
URLS that explain Object orientated programming and design in detail.
I have read articles in

www.phpbuilder.com and
www.phppatterns.com.
In particular I am having troubles breaking my application design-wise, 
into classes and operations.

Any suggestions and tips

Cheers

[PHP] Re: str_replace

[John Gray]

$footer = str_replace('include("$header");', '', $footer);

The way you have it now, you're telling PHP to first include the file 
named by the variable $header, then do an str_replace on the result; but 
the parser is going to fail on that first semi-colon, and that's not 
what you want to do anyway (as I understand it). Put the line you want 
to replace inside single quotes (as above) and PHP won't attempt to 
parse it, it'll just treat it as a string literal. Hope this helps, hope 
it makes sense.

This may seem weird:

How do I str_replace an include function?

I want to replace this line: include("$header");

with nothing .. 

something like this:

$footer = str_replace(" '. include("$header"); .' ", "", $footer);

I get errors, any ideas?

cheers,
