>From what you say you dont want get_class_name because this gives you the name of the class not the instance of it - which is really no different from asking how to get the name of any var.
I dont really know why you would want to do this unless you are dynamically naming the objects. There is get_defined_vars but this gives you everything, environment vars etc and u would have to go through the lot. I am assuming you have the objects in some sort of container - because if you dont know their names that is the only way you can access them - so the only way I can think of is how you name them in the first place. eg. use the name as the key in the container $arr = array(); for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) { $name = "classname$i"; $$name = new blah(); $arr[$name] = $$name; } Maybe there's another way but I cant think of one.
