Yes.  A function has to be declared before you can use it.  Functions 
declared normally (outside conditional statements) are declared when the 
file is parsed.  Functions declared in conditional statements are declared 
during run time _when_ _execution_ _gets_ _to_ _them_.  So, you can solve 
your issue by reordering your script to put the function declaration above 
the is_callable() call.
