And if the class (Class C) is not the child of that class (Class A), the result will be correct. Test script: --------------- <?php class A { public function __call($name, $args) { echo "NO\n"; } public static function __callStatic($name, $args) { echo "YES\n"; } } class B extends A { public function test() { A::test(); } } class C { public function test() { A::test(); } } A::test(); $b = new B(); $b->test(); $c = new C(); $c->text(); Expected result: ---------------- YES YES YES Actual result: -------------- YES NO YES ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62330&edit=1
