<?php

 

require_once "config.php";

 

abstract class DataObject {

 

protected $data = array();

 

public function__construct( $data ) {

foreach ( $data as $key => $value ) {

if ( array_key_exists( $key, $this->data )) $this->data[$key] =

$value;

}

 

}

 

public function getValue( $field ) {

if ( array_key_exists( $field, $this->data )) {

try {

$conn = new PDO(DB_DSN, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD );

$Conn->setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT, true );

$conn->setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION );

} catch ( PDOException $e->getMessage() );

die( "connection failed: " . $e->getMessage() );

return $conn;

 

}

 

protected function disconnect( $conn ) {

$conn = "";

}  

?>

}    catch ( PDOException $e->getMessage() );

 

Should be:

 

} catch ( PDOException $e) {

You don't have any white-space after the function keyword.
