 If an undefined function or variable is referenced, JMeter does not report/log 
an error - the reference is returned unchanged.
 For example if UNDEF is not defined as a variable, then the value of ${UNDEF} 
is ${UNDEF}.
+</b>
+Variables, functions (and properties) are all case-sensitive.
 </p>
 <note>
 Properties are not the same as variables.

-       <p>If JMeter detects an error, a message will be written to the log 
file. 
+    <note>
+    JMeter does not generally use pop-up dialog boxes for errors, as these 
would interfere with
+    running tests. Nor does it report any error for a mis-spelt variable or 
function; instead the
+    reference is just used as is. See <a href="functions.html">Functions and 
Variables for more information</a>.
+    </note>
+       <p>If JMeter detects an error during a test, a message will be written 
to the log file. 
                The log file name is defined in the jmeter.properties file (or 
using the -j option, see below).
                It defaults to <b>jmeter.log</b>, and will be found in the 
directory from which JMeter was launched.
                [in JMeter 2.2 and earlier, this was forced to be the JMeter 
bin directory.]
