I tried $this->parent->test but it doesn't work. Can anybody help me?
There is no implicit reference created in an instance of a class to the 
instance of it's container for fairly obvious reasons when you think 
about it. The only way you can do what you want to do it to pass a 
reference to $this to the constructor of the browser class in the 
session::init method. Something like this...

class session
{
  var $test="TEST";
  var $browser;
  function init()
  {
    $this->browser = new browser($this);
  }
}
class browser
{
  var $session = null;
  function browser(&$session)
  {
    $this->session = &$session;
  }
  function parent_test()
  {
    return $this->session->test;
  }
}
