He wasn't talking about *undefined variables* at all. The variable *is* defined as private and calling that is ofcourse not allowed. The second thing is that calling normal undefined functions throws a fatal error as well, and it should do that just like calling non existing methods on an object should throw a fatal error. regards, Derick
