The analog case with classes is described as ok in the docs(dont have tested it), so it should also work with functions. So i Request to add this feature. Test script: --------------- <?php namespace bar{ function foo(){ echo "test", "\n"; } function foo2(){ echo "test2", "\n"; } function foo3(){ echo "test3", "\n"; } } namespace{ echo "start \n"; \bar\foo(); use \bar as haha; haha\foo2(); $test = 'haha\foo3'; $test(); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- test test2 test3 Actual result: -------------- test test2 Fatal error: Call to undefined function haha\foo3() in /home/flyingmana/Desktop/sandkasten/namespace.php on line 19 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52574&edit=1
