This is my guess: In your example staticMethod() is not regarded as a _static_ function. Instead, PHP runs it in the InstanciateMe-object's scope as if it would belong to the InstanciateMe class. If you try to access $this in staticMethod() it will certainly be the same as $obj. This behavior is needed to access overwritten methods from the parent class. In my opinion, it should not work for foreign classes, though. -- Ferdinand Beyer <fb@fbeyer.com>
