The function defined() always return false within a function or class,
although the value of the constant is still available.
the code :
<?php
define(NAME, "value");
function f() {
if (defined(NOM)) echo "NOM is defined";
echo NOM;
}
f();
?>
will print "value" only. Currently tested with EasyPHP running with a
Windows XP computer.
