Hi Richard,
I assume you meant $USER->bob() and not USER->bob()?
Can you call $this->bob() from within the class?
Are you using editor syntax highlighting that shows open and close braces?
Use of Vim's "%" command saved me numerous times.
Do you have error reporting set to E_ALL? If not, it's recommended.
I'd be willing to take a look at your code if you want to email a tarball to
me.
Pete
