A note on using class members as function references. This will not work: <?php function MyFunction($output) { echo $output; } class MyClass { var $ref; function MyClass() { $this->ref = "MyFunction"; ${$this->ref}("doesn't work"); } } $obj = new MyClass(); ?> The only way I've found to allow class members to reference functions is by copying the function name into a local variable before referencing it: <?php function MyFunction($output) { echo $output; } class MyClass { var $ref; function MyClass() { $this->ref = "MyFunction"; $localRef = $this->ref; $localRef("doesn't work"); } } $obj = new MyClass(); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40227 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40227&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40227&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
