difference between var and private in a class

[Bosconian]

I've looked everywhere (including php.net) and can't seem to find the answer
to this simple question.

What's the difference between var and private when initializing a variable
in a class?

For example:

class myClass {

var $var1;
private $var2;

// constructor
function myClass() {
// do something
}

}

'var' is deprecated and should be replaced with 'public'. From the
manual:

| Note: The PHP 4 method of declaring a variable with the var keyword is
| still supported for compatibility reasons (as a synonym for the public
| keyword). In PHP 5 before 5.1.3, its usage would generate an E_STRICT
| warning.

var is used in PHP4
it is still supported in PHP5, and is equal to public
