what you are using is potentially not what you think it is. you are

a 'static variable' which is not a static class member.
actually it pretty much *is* the same - the static class member will
exhibit the
same behaviour, only the scope is different.
you can find the
doc on static variables here,
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php
im not sure if their behavior is well defined when they are used in
classes,
or objects.
behaviour is indentical to usage inside standalone functions.
thats a gamble since there is no description of how the static keyword
behaves inside class member functions. i for one will stick to static class
variables and instance variables, and avoid this static variable feature
altogether.
they work the same because they are the same thing. no gamble. nada.
