Re: wierd function behavior within classes.. Bug?

PHP doesn't support that. Dunno if it plans to, either. There are workarounds.. can't remember exactly how it's done, but I think I saw it on phpbuilder.com in a tutorial somewhere. Mike Marc Swanson wrote:

I'm not sure if this is a known feature in php.. but the following code will generate this warning: Warning: Missing argument 2 for foo() in /raid/htdocs/test.php on line 7 ----------------- <? class Foo {
