I've found an odd problem that looks like just a problem with the parser syntax. The following example will show it: <?php namespace Test:Test2 { class Test3 { static $blah = "qwerty"; } } // this works as expected by printing out "qwerty"; print "Test:Test2::Test3::\$blah: ".Test:Test2::Test3::$blah."<br>\n"; namespace Test4 { class Test5 { static $blah = "asdf"; } } // this causes a parse error: unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM print "Test4::Test5::\$blah: ".Test4::Test5::$blah."<br>\n"; ?> So, if the namespace name has a : in it, then you can reference variables within a class contained within the namespace, otherwise you can't. So, assuming that the : doesn't do anything special, it looks like a problem with the flex/yacc/whatever it is parser and the engine should cope with it. I think that's everything.
