I've found that you can specify a function anywhere in the page and call it
anywhere in the page so:

<?
foobar();
function foobar() { echo "in foobar<br>\n"; }
foobar();
?>

would work and display the text twice, without errors/warnings

I haven't looked at the php's source code, but maybe it's a two pass parser
(??)  first it gets all the functions then it executes the code ????????

How does PHP 4 locate function definitions if the function is called 
before it is defined?
