Note Submitter: richard at richard-sumilang dot com ---- Actually, for people not using PHP 5.3 yet you should try avoiding the use of a eval() at all costs! THere are too many security risks and dirty code that come from using eval. If you want to call a static method from a class then you can use call_user_func() instead which is much safer. Example: clas Foo{ public static method Bar(){ echo "Hello world!"; } } And to execute that with call_user_func you would do the following: call_user_func(array('Foo', 'bar') [, $params] ); Thanks, - Richard S.
