I'm learning the ways off writing code in OOP, but i have a file where i do not know how to change it in oop. I have written php code before, but dont know how to convert this file in OOP cant somebody help me with a example of my code or just convert it? It's converted into a datables table with ajax and json, so everytime if i build a class around this code i get a invalid json response This is the code what i want to convert in OOP with 1 class. like a Class project.

OOP - object-oriented programming is just that, programming with objects. The code you show is function-oriented. For OOP you need classes with member variables and methods (functions that work on the data of a particular class). That encapsulates all that code and variables in a single object (or multiple objects of the same class but with different values). There are tonnes of tutorial documentation on OOP on the web, including examples for PHP on the www.php.net web site.
