Why it's saying 'task 1 is not passing'?I didn't change the name of the function and it works locally!

Can you point why is it falling?

index.php 
<?php
include "pagination.php";

/* add function here */
function pagination($total_pages, $current_page, $section, $search){
  /* setting pagination variable */
  $pagination = "<div class=\"pagination\">";
  $pagination .= "Pages: ";  
  for ($i = 1;$i <= $total_pages;$i++) {
    if ($i == $current_page) {
      $pagination .= " <span>$i</span>";
    } else {
      $pagination .= " <a href='catalog.php?";
      if (!empty($search)) {
        $pagination .= "s=".urlencode(htmlspecialchars($search)) . '&' ;
      } else if (!empty($section)) {
        $pagination .= "cat=". $section . '&';
      }
      $pagination .= "pg=$i'>$i</a>";
    }
  }
  $pagination .= "</div>";
  return $pagination;
}

/* setting pagination variable */

echo pagination(1, 1, 'bla', 'x');
/* displaying the pagination */

Please close it, I have just realized I had to pass the variables instead of the values!
