What does "call to unsupported or undefined function" mean?

This is the error reported by PHP when it cannot find the code for a
function that you have called.

This generally occurs when:

1. You have not compiled in support for those functions.  For example,
all of the database support in PHP must be compiled into the server
before it is available.  If you want to use the MySQL functions then you
need to compile PHP with support for MySQL.

2. You haven't written the code for that function yet.
