Basic Inheritance And Static Method Calls

I think its a standard concept but just not getting it. I have 3 classes:

1) Base class
2) Derived class, which extends base
3) TestClass

public class Base {
public void display() {
System.out.println("Display method in Base");
}
}
class Derived extends Base {
public void display() {
System.out.println("display method in Derived");

[Code] .....

So if i run this, my results are:

Display method in Base
display method in Derived
display method in Derived

Thats cool, no problems there, but if i change my Display method in Base and Derived to static methods then the results become:

Display method in Base
display method in Derived
Display method in Base

So why oh why does obj3.display() now print "Display method in Base"?

(and yes I know the calls should be static calls, but for sake of arguments -- or is that the whole problem, that technically obj3.display() is an incorrect call as it can only be Base.display() or Derived.display() when display() is a static method ).
