Note Submitter: bgano@inocompany.com ---- 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(); ?>
