Re: Use of "var" in PHP4 OOP

var is used to declare a property for the class. But php allows you to
dynamically add property like the code you have given. Declaring
properties for the class is important specially when you are doing
frameworks so you could easily associate the properties from one class
to the other or you will let the user of your class know what are the
available properties.

Hope that helps a bit.
