oop question

hey guys...is there a way of getting the name of that class that the extended class was called from...ie.

 

<?php

class News_Controller etends Actions
{

}

class Actions
{
       public function model_name()
      {
             $model_name // = class name news_controller
      }
}

?>[code]

[/code]

[Destramic]

echo get_class($this);

 

did the trick...but how can i call a method if the class is an extended class

What do you mean?

 

I assume you mean like this:

//Within the class:
$this->model_name();

//Outside the class:
$class = new News_Controller();
$class->model_name();

well i suppose i could do it in a constuctor

can you re-word this:

how can i call a method if the class is an extended class

 

I don't understand what you mean.
