Get it ? > No. The code you displayed (in the switch block) is 100% identical to the code Derick offered (except for the fact that Derick's example will handle any class name while yours is limited). $classname::method() === call_user_func(array($classname,'method')); Get it? -Pollita P.S. - This thread has gone on long enough, either TRY IT, or take it to php-general@lists.php.net where it belongs so that they can tell you the same thing.
