From 4 to 5

Well, I get to play with php5 instead of php4. This is huge news for me, as I intend to use stored procedures in MySQL, which is all but impossible with php4.

I'm taking advantage of this change to really make this new project object-oriented. I'm not much of an OOP fanatic myself, but I do see some advantages here, especially since it is so ding hard to write anonymous functions and to pass them around. (At least that is my impression.) php5 seems set up in a way that encourages you to pass objects around instead, so I will adjust.
