It can be found here: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/PHP/PHP_Windows/Q_20723364.html The problem is that for some reason (and not consistently), php proclaims a function as being undefined when called, even though it is clearly defined. The solution to the problem is to copy the function into a location *before* it is called, instead of after it is called. It's not consistent, and while I can't reproduce it in any traditional sense, in the cases where it does happen, it happens every time the script is called, until you copy the function to a location above where it is being called. Reproduce code: --------------- (See the link Posted Above) Expected result: ---------------- Expected function to execute Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getvars() in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\baileybible\class\adminArticles.php on line 34 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25313&edit=1
