note 15492 added to functions

Although the PHP4 documentation explicitly says function calls do not need to be placed after the respective function declaration, this is not true when functions are declared within each other. Consider the following declaration: function container () { fred (); function fred () { echo 'Hello, world'; } } container (); As with version 4.03 of PHP, the PHP3 behaviour remains for this special case and the program aborts with an 'undefined function error'. I consider this an arbitrary limitation, which should be documented, or at best changed. Daniel Alvarez http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.php
