Note Submitter: daxxar ---- Just to point it out, this is slightly different from the C++ OO approach. The following code compiles and runs fine using g++ with the options -W -Wall -pedantic :) #include <iostream> struct Foo { static void Bar() { std::cout << "Hi!" << std::endl; } }; int main() { Foo x; x.Bar(); return 0; } Whereas accessing a static method via an instance of a class in PHP doesn't work. It's not a problem, but it's perhaps worth noting, if you're used to C++ OO.
