Couldn't you just add another method called "return_field_name()" to the
class? Then you could run this method from the script and you will be
given the value of the field name. Your code would look like this:
class obj
{
var $field;
function obj($value)
{
$this->field = $value;
}
function return_field_name()
{
return $this->field;
}
}
then in your code you would do something like:
<?php
$o = new obj("field value");
print $o->return_field_name();
?>
This might not work, I don't know much about OO.
