Is there a simple way to make a class object global for an entire application in PHP? I need my class to only be able to be instantiated once throughout the entire application and have it working 100%. Thanks. EDIT Decided the Singleton pattern is the best idea for what I need, and was requested to add a bit of code so here it is: Using the class in my app: <pre><code>function catp_check_request(){ $catp=catp::getInstance(); $dlinks=array(); $ddlinks=array(); foreach($catp->rawlinks->link as $rawlink){ $dellink="catp-del-{$rawlink->name}"; array_push($dlinks,$dellink); } // More stuff.. } </code></pre> Declaring the class: <pre><code>class catp { private static $instance; private $errors; private $status_messages; private $plugin_name; private $plugin_shortname; private $links; private $linksurl; private $rawlinks; private function __construct(){} public static function getInstance() { if (self::$instance == null) { self::$instance = new catp(); } return self::$instance; } public function catp(){ $this->errors=false; $this->plugin_name='CloakandTrack Plugin'; $this->plugin_shortname='CaTP'; $this->status_messages=array( 'updated' => 'You just updated', 'enabled' => 'You just enabled', 'disabled' => 'You just disabled', 'debug' => 'Plugin is in debug mode' ); $this->linksurl=dirname(__FILE__).'/links.xml'; $this->rawlinks=simplexml_load_file($this->linksurl); $this->links=$this->catp_parse_links($this->rawlinks); } // More functions.. } </code></pre>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
