Operating system: Win XP
PHP version:      4.3.0
PHP Bug Type:     Documentation problem
Bug description:  Information about placing php.ini not accurate

The documenation states in http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php
about php.ini location on Windows:

Copy your chosen ini file (see below) to your '%WINDOWS%' directory on
Windows 9x/Me or to your '%SYSTEMROOT%' directory under Windows NT/2000/XP
and rename it to php.ini. Your '%WINDOWS%' or '%SYSTEMROOT%' directory is
typically: 

[...]

However, php.ini can also be placed in to the directory where php is
installed. This is more error save, because one does never have an old
php.ini file dumpling in the windows directory. Additionally it's possible
to run multiple php installations with different ini settings on the same
system if php.ini is placed in the php binary directory.

On the same page the list of php extensions is rather outdated. Some
extensions from php3 are still there, some others are missing... I can try
to compile a list as of 4.3.0 if you like.
