You're calling the cleanup() method of the "htmlcleaner" class. You could also have: $ob = new htmlcleaner; $value = $ob->cleanup($value); You can use the first method without having to actually make a new object. Whether that's better or not depends upon your application. It basically turns your "object" into a function repository. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
