Undefined function: mime type

[tomandhannah]

I have this code on a page:

<?
$im = "/pathtoimagesfolder/10769970034.JPG";
$imtype = mime_content_type('$im');
print $imtype;

?>

If I load the page, I only get an error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mime_content_type() in mimetype.php on line 312

Why would I get an error calling this PHP function?

Look up the function in the manual. For recently added functions, the version required is explained at the top of the manual page. Are you running PHP 4.3.0 or newer?

Actually, the only reason I'm using it is b/c I spotted it in the manual. I have PHP 4.3.2.... In fact, my example code above is practically straight from the manual example.

Did you actually load the mime magic module and set the path to the magic.mime file in php.ini?

[tomandhannah]

phpinfo() says: '--enable-mime-magic' and under loaded modules: mod_mime_magic

Sounds to me like it's enabled...
