PHP Comparison Character Set

[scripter50]

I found some code in a shareware PHP app that I've never seen and can't seem to identify. Can anyone shed any light on this:

$listTeam = new request();
$listTeam->openTeams($tmpquery);


My problem is the "->" - what does this mean?

Thanks in advance

Looks like a class...
first line creates a class
second one seems start a function in this class

So line one creates a class calles $listTeam
Line two uses the function 'openTeams' with a parameter of class $listTeam

Thanks JRBeltman, that's what it is. I hadn't thought to look at OOP syntax.
