I believe what the author meant is: "Members declared protected can be accessed only within the class itself and by inheriting classes." In other words: if class C extends class B which extends class A, then a protected member of B can be accessed by C. With the current text "inherited classes" suggest that class A can access protected members of B. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73779&edit=1
