PHP OO programming references? Sep22 '05

I’ve been looking for a good reference on object oriented programming, in PHP - but I’ve had no luck.

Most references found on the web attempt to explain OO programming by using abstract concepts, real-world objects, and confusing words to explain something that is supposed to be simple. For instance, comparing programming to microwaves, or bicycles is not helpful, for a beginner.

I’m not so much a beginner at PHP - I’m a beginner at learning OO concepts - and I’d like to convert my existing PHP functions over to an "OO approach."

That’s all I really want to know.

Taking existing functions, and converting them to classes.

I don’t need the long-winded, metaphysical jargon. Just tell it to me straight.
