Hi, I'd like to do something like this: if (method_exists($object, 'get' . ucfirst($property))) { $children = $object->{'get' . ucfirst($property)}; } but this is not working unfortunately – $children is always NULL although the getter exits. Is there a another way to build a dynamic getter? Cheers, MichaelSide note: PHP is, technically, case-insensitive for class/function/method names. So you don't need the ucfirst() calls. Calling $object->foo() and $object->Foo() do the same thing. --Larry Garfield
