How does this look now?

<?php

class dbconfig {
public $connInfo = array();
public $connInfo[$hostname] = 'host.com';
public $connInfo[$username] = 'dbuser';
public $connInfo[$password] = 'dbpass';
public $connInfo[$database] = 'mydbname';

public __construct() {
return $this->$connInfo;
}
}

?>

<?php

include_once("dbconfig.class.php");

class dbconn extends dbconfig {

public $DB;

public __constructor(){
$this->$connInfo = new dbconfig();
$username =
$hostname =
$password =
$database =
$DB = new PDO("mysql:host=$connInfo[$hostname];dbname=
$connInfo[$database]", $connInfo[$username], $connInfo[$password]);
return $DB;
}
}

?>

And it's not really good OO, either. Saying that dbconn extends
dbconfig is saying that "a database connection IS-A database
configuration". It isn't. You might say that "a database connection
HAS-A database configuration." Actually, your code says that "a
database connection IS-A database configuration that HAS-A database
configuration" since dbconfig is both a member property and a parent
class of dbconn. And, as pointed out on your other thread, the
dbconfig constructor should not even have a return statement.

I'm definitely no OO expert, but it looks like you are trying to use
OOP simply because you can, even though you don't seem to understand
how objects can/should relate to one another.
