||*()*|| Hi, aidan.
Tutorial will be helpful, but I still can see this only like
Advanced PHP techniques.
With patterns, PEAR error handling tutorials and the like.
Being placed in Tutorials section it will confuse newbies
greatly.
apn> I think a new, broader tutorial section could encompass a lot of
apn> material that has been looking for a home.
apn> The patterns page, a page about include_path, perhaps the magic quotes
apn> and register globals pages? I'd also like a section discussing basic
apn> query string mapping (?page=foo).
apn> Thoughts?

apn> Topic: include_path (PHP_INI_ALL)
apn> It seems that the include_path directive has been confusing some people
apn> lately so let's teach everyone how to use it. This is a request for a
apn> tutorial ("tutorial.include-path") that explains the use include_path.
apn> Topics include:
apn> + How to set it properly/effectivly using*:
apn> - ini_set() (PHP_INI_USER)
apn> - .htaccess (PHP_INI_PERDIR)
apn> - php.ini (PHP_INI_SYSTEM)
apn> - httpd.conf (PHP_INI_SYSTEM)
apn> See also: config.xml : sec1 configuration.changes
apn> PHP_INI_* table : currently in ini_set() docs
apn> * Another need is an explanation of conf features
apn> in terms of other web servers like IIS (i.e.
apn> windows registry), but that's another topic.
apn> + It's meaning in relation to:
apn> - include/require
apn> - safe mode
apn> - open_basedir
apn> - allow_url_fopen (filesystem/ini.xml)
apn> - streams
apn> - ini_get
apn> - readfile, file, etc. (mention other stuff that uses include_path)
apn> + Examples
apn> + Include all changes (when bugs|features were fixed|added)
apn> This is both a report to gather confirmed facts as well as a reminder
apn> for us to eventually write it. In otherwords, all documentation within
apn> the entire manual on this topic needs evaluating.
