I may be missing something completely here, but aren't you just looking for $stripped_array = $_fromThisArray[0]; Even if you have to invent a "dummy" real__construct method in the parent class to call from the extended classes, and then relay the parent __construct into it; something like: class parent_class { function __construct( $something ... variable argument list ){ real__construct(func_get_args()); } protected function real__construct() { $args = func_get_args(); $args = $args[0]; .... } } class extended_class extends parent_class { function __construct() { parent::real__construct(func_get_args()); } } Disclaimer: this is all off the top of my head before morning coffee, and completely untested. Someone else will quite likely come up with a much better way to do this, as OOP is not really my forte... ;) ;) Cheers!
