Yes, I think a similar grouping scheme would be useful. However, the line spacing was too much on the page http://in.php.net/manual/en/extensions.php, due to which you have to scroll a lot. We can continue listing the functions in the Function Index. But let me clarify, I have not referred to the Function Index in my earlier post. I have refered to the section "Function Reference" in Table of Contents on page http://www.php.net/manual/en/.

The list is sorted alphabetically, due to which many similar categories appear at very different place in TOC. Here are a few examples" 1. ".NET Fuctions" and "COM and .NET Functions" 2. "ClibPDF Fucntions", "Haru PDF Functions", and "PDF Functions" 3. "DOM XML Functions", "libXML Functions", and "SimpleXML Functions" 4. "String Functions" and "Multibyte String Functions" 5. "Image Functions" and "Exif Functions" I think we should group the functions categories under different sections such as "Database", "Mail","Imaging" etc. This would make it easier to browse or search for a particular function. The word "Functions" can also be omitted from each category because it is obvious. If creating sections is not feasible, we can atleast rename the categories so that similar functions appear togather. For example the cateogry "Multibye String Fuctions" can be renamed to "String Functions - Multibye" so that it appears togather with the category "String Fuctions" in TOC.
