Now, please tell me how can you decide whether the member function is called as an object element (eg. $obj->func()) or as a class element (eg. class::func()). Basic functionality is killed with this so-called feature. The right way should be a call stack, with for example a $_STACK array, or through stack functions (eg. this_object(), previous_object()). -- jul -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
