I may be asking this question out of ignorance, but here goes: What is the difference between the following snippets? // global.php use \foo\bar\*; $a = new A(); $b = new B(); // namespaced.php namespace \foo\bar; $a = new A(); $b = new B(); I don't understand why in the namespaced example no one seems to have a problem with new A() meaning new \foo\bar\A(), but we can't use the * wildcard to do the same thing? -- Joshua Thompson Mechanical Engineer/Software Developer http://www.schmalls.com
