this is my plugin for a custom search i use on my project. it shows input and selectboxes and works perfectly on my localhost. today i wanted to go live and im getting an error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function cot_selectbox() in /home/ppastelt/public_html/plugins/arama/arama.php on line 18

Edit: i solved the problem by adding cot_incfile to forms.php but i still wonder why it doesnt work on live but works on localhost
