A variable function can be called on a normal function just fine:
------------------------------
function test()
{
return "test1";
}
$function = "test";
echo $function();
------------------------------
This outputs: test
However trying the same thing on a funciton inside a class will fail:
------------------------------
class Test
{
function Test()
{
}
function testClass()
{
return "test 2";
}
}
$function = "Test::testClass";
echo $function();
------------------------------
Calling:
echo Test::testClass();
works fine, however the above code does not. It should output: test 2
However it returns an error similar to the following:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: registration::formatdate() in
/home/gaza/public_html/fp_php/support/table.php on line 396
