Note Submitter: erwin at isiz dot nl ---- @sijmen at digitized dot nl That's not true. The reference operator does have effect, when used correctly. Your code doesn't use the reference operator in the set_error_handler function, but it does when creating the new error object. In your case, you have to use the reference operator two times. When calling the set_error_handler function <?php set_error_handler(array(&$this, 'handler')); ?> and when creating the class <?php $eh = &new error; ?> In that case the same error class will be used and the output will be following: Error! !! Hope this helps.
