Hi All, im new to classes in PHP. Im trying to create several instances of a very basic class but i want each name to be based on number values in an array and im not sure if it is allowed and if so how to do it. I assume that im not allow to have a var starting with a number so what i am trying to do is add the word case to the front of the class instance name so i would have $case100,$case101 etc. Im am using PHP 5.02. Heres my code <?php class Test { //members var $caseid,$fee; function Test($caseid){ $this->caseid=$caseid; } function addmember($membername,$value){ $this->$membername=$value; } } $names=array("100","101","102","104"); $numnames=count($names); for($i=0;$i<$numnames;$i++){ *** below is the syntax im missing *** $case.$names[$i] = new Test($names[$i]); } var_dump($case100); ?> Thanks for any help in advance!
