None of those two classes are valid class declarations in the first place — Hanky Panky, Oct 07 '13 at 05:58
First step you need to declare public variable inside class. Then use extends to extend the first class in second class to access base class variables — Nes, Oct 07 '13 at 06:01
You should learn oop first cause you don't know what is it and what is it for so we can't help you. — Sina R., Oct 07 '13 at 06:01

It should be something like this.

info.php

class Connection {
   // these two variable should be declared within the class.
   protected $db; // to be able to access these variables from a diff class
   protected $db1; // either their scope should be "protected" or define a getter method.

   public function __construct() {
      $this->connect();
   }

   private function connect() {
       $this->db = 'hello world';
       $this->db1 = 'hi';
   }
}

prd.php

require_once 'info.php';

// you are accessing the Connection class in static scope
// which is not the case here.
class prdinfo extends Connection {
   public function __construct() {
       // initialize the parent class
       // which in turn sets the variables.
       parent::__construct();
   }

   public function productId() {
        echo $this->db;
        echo $this->db1;
   }
}


$prd = new prdinfo ();
$prd->productId ();

This is a basic demonstration. Modify it as per your needs. More here - http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.php
