note 11017 deleted from function.define by sniper

If you are using define() in a configuration file, and your script requires that the defined constant be defined, check it! In other words, say you have a constant defined called HTML_BODY like this: define('HTML_BODY', '<body>'); In your PHP code that generates HTML you do this: print(HTML_BODY); However, if you fail to define HTML_BODY, or your client comments it out, this is the same as saying: print('HTML_BODY'); and the string of the constant name will be output. I consider this a bug, but it may be a feature. Correctly dealing with constants that are optional (or not defined) could be done as follows: if ( defined('HTML_BODY') && HTML_BODY ) print(HTML_BODY);
