$dte will only have the return value of DBToyExt::connect() - it won't
allow you to access other methods in the class.
You'll need to:
$dbtoy = new DBToyExt();
$dbtoy->connect(....)
$dbtoy->testext('testing');
Thanks! Works like a charm:

That's interesting. I think I just sortof expected that since the canonical
invocation is through a statically called method, calling it by dereferencing
a specific object wouldn't work.
In your example, $dte holds whatever DBToyExt::connect returns (whether
that's a connection resource, a boolean, a string - doesn't matter).
It's the same as:
function connect() {
return true;
}
$x = connect();
$x will only hold what 'connect' returns.
If you do:
var_dump($dte);
It won't be an object, so you can't use that to reference other methods
in that (or the parent) class(es).
