Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Has been like this in PHP 4 too and we didn't want to break it in PHP 5.

Is it intended ? Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class Plop { function coin(){ echo get_class($this); } } class Foo { function plop(){ Plop::coin(); } } $foo =& new Foo(); $foo->plop(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Nothing Actual result: -------------- foo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29294&edit=1
