I think the case where you have some existing PHP4 code that you want to make minimal changes to but you might have a little bit of PHP5-specific code to run in the constructor I could see this sort of chaining being something people want. I am not saying that is the way people should create a portable class, just that I could see such code popping up. And the question was what to do about the old-style constructor method. I think it would be very confusing if it was some sort of illegal method name that wasn't callable.You sold me on the usefulness. George
