Thanks.

Does anybody else have any input? Not to be pushy, but I'm in the
middle of programming a framework for a site.

Not sure if I am doing it correctly either, but, what I do is use
try/catch blocks to instantiate all of the objects that I need and then
let the script take over. I also use exceptions to handle SQL errors in
my db abstraction object(s). That way, only real messes are caught and
the script then displays a graceful exit page to the user instead of
screen vomit that may scare them off.
