Here is a little trick you can use to simulate static variables within a PHP class. PHP5 does not yet support static variables, though it does have support for static class functions.

(Toggle Plain Text)

$GLOBALS['_transient']['static']['test']->v1 = 1;
 
class Test {
 
    function Test() {
        $this->v1 = & $GLOBALS['_transient']['static']['test']->v1;
    }
 
    function printAndIncrease() {
        echo "$this->v1<br>";
        $this->v1++;
    }
 
    var $v1;
}
 
$t1 = new Test();
$t1->printAndIncrease();
$t2 = new Test();
