hi all, i wonder if there is a way of creating an instance of a class and reach it direcly from any scope in PHP4. basically what i want is: ... i don't want to: - declare global $foo, - use pre-defined $GLOBALS variable, - or use a::print

Well I don't know what the list will feel about this one, but you *could* create a function (or series of functions) to do what you want with $a, since functions always live in the global scope. If you're just looking for a generic get-me-around-scoping solution, this obviously wouldn't be appropriate. However if your $a is special, for example an application-wide configuration object, then the approach might suit your needs....or wants, as it were. -John W
