RE: [PHP] How to find the object name in a class?

This is exactly what I'm doing as it was the only work around that I could find, too. > Then in your code you just use ${$pge}-> to refer to it. Yup. However, before I do this, I check to make sure $pge is valid before I use it. Otherwise, all kinds of nastiness can occur. What I'm doing this for is my error reporting class. I'm using a wrapper function that calls my class' errorHandler() method since you cannot specify a class method as the handler function. Kind of funky. But doing this was the only way I could get around it. > Sucks, doesn't it? Yup. But I'm sure there is a reason for it. Kind of like whatever the reason is that we cannot actually get a variable's name. I.E. $joe = "bob"; we cannot get that the above variable's name is "joe". Oh, well. Chris
