<? 
class someclass{

function function1(){
 //do something here
}

function function2(){

$this->function1();
}

}
?>

or outside

$c = new someclass;
$c->function1();
$c->function2(); 

call function3 in a class which is not inside the class:

<? 
function function3()
{
return 'do something';
}

class someclass{

function function1(){
 //do something here
}

function function2(){
$something_inside = $this->function1();
$something_outside = function3();
}

}
?>

example OOP wapcreate.com is pure OOP and is built upon MVC architecture

class Car {

private $carname;
private $caryear;
public object;

public function __construct($carname, $caryear)
{
   self::setName($carname); //this could also be done using $this->setName($carname) or Car::setName($carname)
   self::setYear($caryear);
}

public function setYear($y)
{
   $this->caryear = $y;
}

public function setName($n)
{
   $this->carname = $n;
}


public function getName()
{
   return $this->carname;
}

public function getYear()
{
  return $this->caryear;
}

}; // the semicolon is not needed here

usage of this class will be 

$car = new Car("Lamboginy", "2010");

you can now use the get methods to access properties of this class

like if you wanted to print the year of the car it will be like

echo $car->getYear(); will print 2010;

you can also have objects within other objects like 

$car->object = new Car("BMW", "2011");

echo $car->object->getName(); will print BMW 

[something else]

I mean if i have got a class like:

<? 
class someclass{

funtion function1(){
 //do something here
}

funtion function2(){
  //how do i use function1 here?
// $someclass->function1();  //tried this and it caused errors
// or is it $this->function1(); //i havent tried using this
}

}
?>

Not oop: function_name();

Oop: $this->function_name();

this

$this represents the object inside the class
i think "$this" represent non-static call , don't get me wrong, I'm an noob willing to learn :P

none of us is wrong technically/programatically...

"this" represent an non-static call to an object/method/variable bla bla bla etc... thanks for correction Dude :cheers:

Ok master, got it :D

added after couple of minutes :D (just phped php.net for perfect answer)

$this is a reference to the calling object (usually the object to which the method belongs, but possibly another object

$this

1st one is correct

$this represents the object inside the class

class mycls {
public $name;
public function me()
{
return "Hi";
}
public function hehe()
{
//inside the class
echo $this->me(); 
}
}
$object = new mycls;
echo $object->me();
//look at the above code, you had to create an instance of the class but inside the class you can use $this :P :D 

i think "$this" represent non-static call , don't get me wrong, I'm an noob willing to learn :P

OOP can be a force for both good and evil. Evil if you don't know what you're doing.

For large applications, PHP OOP is good but for small applications PHP OOP is bad
