Quick Syntax Question

[srule_]

Hello,

I'm learning about face book applications and I run into code like this quit a bit:

print_r($facebook->api_client->profile_setFBML($markup));


what do the "->" mean?

Thanks

It's the operator(for lack of a better word) for accessing members of objects in PHP's OOP (http://php.net/language.oop5).

Aww, Thank you! I have yet to start learning about OOP.

Pssh, that is an operator! :P

Yeah, that's what I thought, but I couldn't find it in the list of operators (http://php.net/operators).
