RE: general question re PHP OOP support

If you choose to research OOP support in other Web development languages,
don't forget ColdFusion. There is a powerful OOP methodology called FuseBox
used by many CF developers. You might like it.

I think your real decision is whether you should move this off of a web
based interface; and if the answer is yes, then perhaps you should look
at alternatives -- perhaps Python? ... but if you're staying web based,
I don't think a better language exists than PHP.
