new Nickname($parms)

Up: class Nickname

The constructor for an instance of Nickname takes one parameter:

parameter	description
$parms	identifies the database record to be associated with this instance. This is an associative array.

$parms may be:

• An associative array containing all of the fields in a record as obtained by a database SELECT.
• array('nickname' => $name) specifies the name as it appears in the original document that is to be used to initialize the new instance.

The constructor adds error messages to $record->msg if it is unable to complete due to bad parameters.
