It's as clear as the first try, still, it does not need an instantiated
object. but just a classname, see this example:
<?php
class foo { function method($p1) { echo "$p1\n"; } };
$f = 'foo';
call_user_func(array($f, 'method'), 'foo');
?>
(prints 'foo')

$this only works for instanciated classes, not static method calls.
