in your case you have defined all your methods as static.... so the
engine will not make $this available even if you call the
method/function on an instantiated object.
solution - remove 'static' from the function definitions that you wish
to use $this in.
how odd, i have assumed having a class static you could still throw around
classes cannot be defined as static - defining them as abstract has the effect
of being able to only use a given class statically (unless you subclass it and the subclass
is not abstract).
variables inside it, or its only meant to stay in the one static method so
yes you can use variables - but not member variables because $this is not defined in functions
that are declared static - bare in mind you can call a method statically even though its not
marked as static (just be sure you don't reference $this).
sidenote: the php4 trick of overwriting $this does not work in PHP5.
executing it like
Class::staticMethod();
and
Class::otherStaticMethod() ?
I don't really understand what your asking.
