If you call a function in this way then you need to be aware that internal class references will not work (presumably as there isn't an instance for $this to refer to)

e.g.
>Class fred
>{     function fred()
>      {     $this->fred2();
>      }
>      function fred2()
>      {     echo("hello world");
>      }
>}
>fred::fred();

... will cause a
"Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in ..."

This took me ages to work out
