Hi,

I've just started using php classes and a form validation class in
particlular, to check for empty fields and other stuff.
I'm creating forms which access the class etc.  I'm using dreamweaver and
whenever I F12 preview the page in question, it sees the -> as a closing
tag.
I've tried a few different classes and scripts usinf the -> to assign and
each treats it as a closing tag..??

EG. a section of code
----------------------------------------------
 require("forms.php");
 $subscription=new form_class;

// Everything from the first -> is trated as not PHP!! and is just printed
in the browsew window as text.

 $subscription->NAME="subscription_form";
 $subscription->METHOD="GET";
 $subscription->ACTION=$PHP_SELF;
 $subscription->debug="OutputDebug";

I have no idea about this, can anybody help me here?
I'm using PHP 4.2.3 on Apache and Win XP Pro and PHP does everything else
properly..

Thanks for help !!
Cheers,
Paul
