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 ???????? -----Original Message----- From: Rick Emery [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 6:06 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] Using functions before they're defined What happened when you tried? -----Original Message----- From: Brad Harriger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2002 8:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Using functions before they're defined How does PHP 4 locate function definitions if the function is called before it is defined? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
