Classes isues

Hello to everybody. Im not a guru in php, so i want to ask if is possible to use function and variables from a class without creating an object of that class.

To be more explicite. I have a general class that contain a lot of functions that do things that are not related. I just want to use them.

Yes, use static functions in the class.

PHP Code:


			
class Myclass
{

    private static $classvariable;

    public static function Myfunc($param)
    {

          self::$classvariable = $param;
          return self::$classvariable;

    }

}

$var = Myclass::Myfunc("This is actually working!");

echo $var; // echoes "This is actually working!"

But be aware that working with classes, and in particular, object orientated programming can be sooooo much more of a use than just be a collection of functions. Try googling for "php5 oop tutorial" or something ;)
