That's the key. You can do anything you want inside __autoload(). If you must consult something in the environment, there are a couple of ways to do it. First, set a variable in the $_SESSION array, and consult it in __autoload(). Second, use a configuration file for your application. Have it in a stable place, and read the values out of it as needed. Consult these in your __autoload() if you like. Paul

I'd suggest skipping __autoload() and going straight for spl_autoload_register(), as it does the same thing but is more flexible since you can then have multiple autoload callbacks if necessary. --Larry Garfield
