hi there, a quick question regarding whether the following is by design, because it causes a parse error (the code I tried out did occur within a class definition ! :-): if (!$field instanceof __CLASS__) { // do something } where as this obviously does work: $class = __CLASS__; if (!$field instanceof $class) { // do something } as does this: if (!$field instanceof self) { // do something } rgds, jochem
