Hi,

I am trying to create an array of objects of class 'My' and then print that array. What am I doing wrong here, i did not get any thing in
var $name when I print array.

<?php

class My 
{ 
        var $name = ""; 
        var $children = array(); 
        

        function My($name) 
        { 
                $this->$name = $name; 
               
	} 

        function addChild($mynode) 
        { 
                $this->children[] = $mynode; 
                
        } 
} 



        $a = new My("John"); 
        $b = new My("Bob"); 
        $c = new My("Cat"); 
        $x = new My("Xon"); 

        $a->addChild($b); 
        $a->addChild($c); 
        $a->addChild($x); 

       print_r($a->children);
	 
?>

output

Array
(
[0] => node Object ( [name] => [children] => Array ( ) => B )
[1] => node Object ( [name] => [children] => Array ( ) [C] => C )
[2] => node Object ( [name] => [children] => Array ( ) [X] => X )

)

your output looks correct to me.

your class is slightly wrong however. the My method should look like this

$this->[red][s]$[/s][/red]name = $name;
