If you are trying to call a method of an object or class you need to 
tell PHP which object or class to call. You do this by passing the 
object or class as the first element of the callback array.

call_user_func(array($this, $callbackFunction));

or for static methods:

call_user_func(array(__CLASS__, $callbackFunction));

Huh? You want to return the value of the callback? Just return the value 
of call_user_func().
