Hi!

~ I was looking at the manual page for HTML_QuickForm::registerElementType(), and at the bottom of the page, it says that this cannot be called statically. Why not? It seems logical to me that if I am registering a new element type, I want it available to ALL HTML_QuickForms that I might instantiate, not just one. Is it because the data that you register has to be stored *somewhere*, and PHP doesn't support static class member variables?Ugh. This is a documentation problem, the method definitely *can* be called statically. Thanks for noticing! Please submit a bug report for this, so that I'll not forget to fix the docs.
