[code=php:0]
<?php
class MyClass {
  var $statement;
  function PrintToScreen(){
  echo $statement;
  }
  }
  $class = new MyClass;
  $class->$statement = "hi";
  $class->PrintToScreen();
?>

If you want to do something with variables defined in your class, you must use a $this pointer to access it within the class.

[code=php:0]
class MyClass {
  var $statement;
  function PrintToScreen(){
  echo $this->statement;
  }
  }
  $class = new MyClass;
  $class->statement = "hi";
  $class->PrintToScreen();
[/code]
