Re: Question on class syntax

Hi Luis,

http://www.php.net/manual/en/keyword...ekudotayim.php

Basically, if this is global code, you are calling the method cleanup of
class htmlcleaner as if it were simply a function. Within a class, the
$this variable is set, and calling htmlcleaner::cleanup() will work as
if cleanup() were a method of your own class.
