Hi list, in PHP4 it was possible to get the name of the calling class with debug_bcktrace(). Unfortunately this behaviour has been changed in PHP5. I didn't find a solution in the archives. Is there *any* way to get the name of the calling class?: class Car {
    function drive() {
        // I need the name of the calling class here
        // in this case it should be 'Porsche'
    }
} class Porsche extends Car { } Porsche::drive(); Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks and best regards, Torsten Roehr
