[snip]
You're calling a classes method statically when it cannot be called as 
such - the function makes references to $this, or has otherwise been 
shown to be non-static.

You need to create an instance of the object, then call the method 
through it.

E.G. instead of:
	DB::connect('some','variables');
you have to use:
	$mydb = new DB;
	$mydb->connect('some','variables');

Without the exact code, I can only give you examples of about how it 
should look - but that's the gist of it.
