RE: [PHP4BETA] Asking for the impossible?

Admitedly I missed a large portion of this discussion, but that syntax doesn't seem right to be as show() is a function not a variable (even though it looks like a variable because it's part of an object). It seems unreasonable to parse this: "Something substr('something', 4)" into the string: "Something thing". After all, they're both function calls right? Why not just assign $cart->show() to a variable immediately before the print?
