Re: calling parent class method from the outside

admin wrote:

Inside the body of method foo() you can of course use syntax like parent::foo(). But is there a way to call the parent version of obj->foo() outside the class? That kind of syntax is allowed in C++, for example: Aclass a; if (a.Aparent::foo()) ...;

Not sure I get your requirement exactly, but you could try this: class A {

    public function foo ()
    {
        // ...
    }

} class B {

    public parent;

    // Constructor
    public function __construct ()
    {
        $this->parent = new A();
    }

} // And then... $b = new B(); $b->parent->foo(); -- Richard Heyes +44 (0)844 801 1072 http://www.websupportsolutions.co.uk Currently looking for partnerships
