It is shown that:

(i) a continuous function from a compact quasi-uniform space into a quasi-uniform space is not necessarily quasiuniformly continuous;

(ii) if the range of the function is a uniform space, the function will be necessarily quasi-uniformly continuous.

(This contradicts an example in the literature and generalizes a classical result.) Finally, a generalization of (ii) is given by means of a suitable boundedness notion.
