PHP Bug? With Class?

Question

Here is my code:

<?php class Video { protected $_test; } ?>

and when I try to include the file containing this code I've got that error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in ../classes/Video.class.php on line 1

What's wrong? I don't understand.

Answer 1

This looks like you're still running PHP 4, which doesn't know the protected keyword.

An update to PHP 5 would be a good idea.
