I don't know. At the beginning of the include file, after the <?php but
before any of the function definitions, insert

echo '<h1>functions.php</h1>';
phpinfo();

When you run your script again you should see "functions.php" and the output
from phpinfo(). If this doesn't appear, then your file is not being
included. If it does appear, your problem lies somewhere in one of your
functions or function calls.
