I was unable to get this to work. I removed the php from the opening
tags, since nothing in the rest of the site uses it. But no matter
what I try, either the function just gets included as straight text,
or it prevents processing of the rest of the page, or the function is
unimplemented.
A broken version is in the CVS tree for the web site, and the old
version is still being used. Do you have any idea what might be wrong
here?

We really do need someone to work on the Be build, since it is
seriously lagging.
