I have very basic class:

class Customer {

  protected $id;
  protected $customer;

  public function __construct($customer_id) {
    $this->id = $customer_id;
    return $this->set_customer();
  }

  protected function set_customer() {
    $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM customer WHERE id = '$this->id'");
    $this->customer = mysql_fetch_row($query);
    return $this->customer;
  }
}

$customer = new Customer($order->customer->id);
print_r($customer);

This is not doing what I want it to but I understand why... $customer returns a reference to the Customer Object... But what I want is the MySQL row array from the mysql_fetch_row() call...

What am I missing?
