I understand that I put :: when I shouldn't have. But why is it called T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM and not T_DOUBLE_COLON or something else? It's not latin or something is it?

Here's the code <? class test { function test() { echo "In constructor\n"; } } function test::blah() { echo "hello world\n"; } $x = new test(); $x->blah(); ?> Here's the error I got Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM, expecting '(' in C:\WINNT\Profiles\mtowell\Desktop\test1.html on line 7 So, okay, I can't do that. I'd have to define "blah()" inside the "class test{}" block But my question is: what does "T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM" mean? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
