Thank you sir for the response, I will have a look. I love programming in
perl, but Im getting used to the idea of developing class objects and
instances in PHP.
class thisclass {
}
class otherclass extends thisclass {
}
Object oriented programming is a great way to reuse code.
I appreciate your time.

by providing package scoped variables and any method of the package that
does not expect to take an object ref as its first parameter.
