	Exception e wrote :1342 In response to Joost Langen I`ve sent a private message, but I realised that more people can have the same problem as Joost has. Therefore, I repeat my answer here: I think that your php version is too low. In order to run this code you need at least PHP5. If you want to check your php version, just have a look at php_info or simply call <?php echo `my php version is: `.PHP_VERSION; ?> In order to run this code under PHP4, you should strip of the `private` keywords and replace the exceptions with errors. For example: trigger_error(`invalid row index provided`, E_USER_ERROR); But I like to encourage the use of PHP5... :)
