[Editor's note: that is the reason why 'function' and others are "reserved
words", see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.php for
more details]
Creating a function with the name 'function' won't turn up errors, but when calling
that function, nothing will be returned. Example:
<?php
function();
function function () {
print "Hello, world!";
}
// "Hello, world!" will not be printed.
?>
I assume this is because when calling 'function', php thinks you are trying to create a
new function.
