I expected to have the ability to get the url of a location's map with the floowing statement: print $this->Location->GetMap()->GetUrl(); [snip]
Is there any other syntax in PHP4 to allow me to concisely call a method on a return object? eg. ($this->Location->GetMap())->GetUrl() .. which doens't work.
In short, no. That syntax was introduced in PHP5. For OO work, I would strongly recommend upgrading to PHP5 as there are many other important OO features that simply are not available in PHP4. -- Jasper Bryant-Greene General Manager Album Limited http://www.album.co.nz/ 0800 4 ALBUM jasper@album.co.nz 021 708 334
