Courses Plus Student 6,497 PointsI dont have your code, but theres info I found from: http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.static.php
Declaring class properties or methods as static makes them accessible without needing an instantiation of the class. A property declared as static cannot be accessed with an instantiated class object (though a static method can).
They have several examples in the link I provided.
