In other words to get at my parent's method I do not need to know its name, but if I am not an instance I can not get at my own methods without giving my name. Since you can call a class method without an instance, this seems a natural extension of php's :: Thank you all ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14302&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
