Another idea for object access syntax. We already support this syntax to access properties of objects: {$foo->bar} So why not access methods like this? {foo->bar p1="p1" p2="p2"} It is better than the {object ...} syntax, and still keeps a distinction between functions and objects, all without conflicting what "foo.bar" means. Also, it should be perfectly legal to have a registered function and registered object of the same name, and this will work. This does break a little backward compatability since objects must now be registered instead of assigned. But is there really a good reason or advantage of having objects mixed with assigned variables? Monte
