Note Submitter: mina86 at tlen dot pl ---- Yes... We see it again - Stupidity of PHP language. Passing arguments by reference is deprecated so the solution postead @ 15-Aug-2004 10:11 is invalid (because deprecated). You could try using something like <?php $reference($string); ?> however, then $reference would be converted into a string 'Array' and en error would be triggered because function array does not exist (note: array() is a language structure). The real sollution is as fallows: <?php class foo { function bar(&$param) { $param = "foo::bar()"; } } $foo = new foo(); $reference = array($foo,'bar'); $string = "I've been untouched"; call_user_func_array($reference, array(&$string)); echo $string; // outputs "foo::bar()" ?>
