Most internal object methods cannot be called statically. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-06 08:17:51] nickj-phpbugs at nickj dot org Description: ------------ From http://php.net/manual/en/function.dom-domdocument-load.php : "This method may also be called statically to load and create a DOMDocument object." There is also a code example. Running the static example code with E_ALL | E_STRICT error_reporting generates a warning. Reproduce code: --------------- echo "<blah/>" > file.xml php5.2-200610042230/sapi/cli/php -r 'error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); $doc = DOMDocument::load("file.xml");' Expected result: ---------------- No error. Actual result: -------------- PHP Strict Standards: Non-static method DOMDocument::load() should not be called statically in Command line code on line 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39057&edit=1
