In PHP 5.0.x, I can chain function calls like this: $obj->method()->anotherMethod(); In PHP 5.1.x, this code results in an error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in ... I've looked through the change log for 5.1 but didn't see anything relevant. Was this an intentional change? Thanks, - Mark
