galvin Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I have been using PHP for a while now and just recently we started using Joomla at work (which uses PHP and MySQL) and in digging through code, I'm seeing a lot of instances where there is code with an arrow, such as... something -> somethingelse() I'm seeing it A LOT so either I somehow missed a big part of PHP along the way, or maybe it's a not-so popular syntax where the goal can be accomplished another way??? Anyway, I am trying to google it but not really sure what to search for. Can anyone briefly explain what this arrow means, or guide me in a direction where I can learn more about it online?
