I don't know if this is a bug or a limitation, but I got in trouble using inside sprintf a call
to a class method (being inside the class), like this:
<?php
class MyClass{
...
public function Render(){
...
$strToReturn =
sprintf('<table><tr><td>%s</td></tr></table>',
$this->getControlHTML());
...
}
}
?>
The context was too complex to explain here and I didn't try to recreate the error in a simple
context, but working with this code, I even got Apache crash (because sprintf did not return the
right(expected) result).
All trouble was gone when I changed to:
<?php
class MyClass{
...
public function Render(){
...
$controlHTML = $this->getControlHTML();
$strToReturn =
sprintf('<table><tr><td>%s</td></tr></table>',
$controlHTML );
...
}
}
?>
I didn't find any notes/comments here on this limitation, and no related bug.
(I use PHP 5.1.6 and Apache 2.2.3 on WinXP32)
