[PHP-DOC] PHP Manual - Contribution
Hello,
My name is Evan and I am a technical writer that works for Rackspace Hosting.
This week I was using the online php manual to assist a customer with a PHP
script. While looking through the online documentation I came across a section
providing instructions on Installing on Cloud Computing Platforms. To my
dismay Rackspace did not have a presence on this page. I am interesting in
writing content for the manual that would fill this gape. The content would add
Rackspace to the list of available cloud providers and provide links to our
product information and PHP SDK.
I read the getting_started section and noticed the first step was to introduce
myself. I wanted to get this portion started while I got to work on cloning the
book and beginning to include my content. Consider this my Hello fellow tech
writers! I look forward to working with you all. Let me know if you have any
questions/comments/concerns. If not I will get to work on cutting a build in
the coming days.

+1 on this.
This part of the manual is lacking in every way. Not just for Rackspace,
but even the existing services just point to the vendor documentation. It
would be nice to provide some actual meaty content here from the vendors.
Thanks!

[PHP-DOC] PHP Manual is broken in spanish translation.
I'm receiving several emails, indicating: [DOC-ES] This PHP Manual build is broken. A week ago I receive these emails. I tried to contact administrators via Facebook, email, but I have not received a response. Can anyone tell me how to fix this message?. From the online editor I see no option to do this.

Hello, Tulkin! I'll cite the default answer to this kind of request by Hannes Magnusson: Translating the manual into a new language is not a trivial work. You should start with finding several people to help you work on it, and then review the massive workload. We have plenty of dead translations, and are not very keen on having yet another one.. So if you're not confident enough that you can carry the workload and don't have several like-minded persons then it won't work. Documentation size is about 1 files and 20mb and it's constantly updating so it's really task for 4-5 people. 2012/9/3 Tulkin Yusupov y.tul...@gmail.com: Hi, I'm Tulkin Yusupov.

It's attempting to say that you don't need to install a foo_mail or mail_bar extensions, but rather, these exist in PHP core. The installation requirements section will hopefully clear it up: - http://php.net/mail.requirements However, the contradiction comes into play when compared to the documentation (in the requirements section) that sendmail is required for these functions to exist, and for that I urge you to file a bug report. - http://bugs.php.net/ The wording is generic in nature (as an entity inserted into many other sections) but ext/mail is a unique. I think it's a little odd that mail() can be undefined due to compile time circumstances but it is what it is. Thank you for helping evaluate this topic. Regards, Philip

I'm not sure intent matters in legal affairs, and the lack of precision is still likely to concern some people, but I'll pass this information along and let someone else worry about it. :-) I'm not a lawyer, else I would happily offer advice about how to make these statements more precise. I do not think something can be copyrighted by multiple entities, so that is probably the primary issue. (Perhaps a related issue is whether the PHP Documentation Group is a legal entity. IBM had paperwork for PDO that said that the PHP Group was effectively a common law entity, but I'm not sure the same has been or even can be done for the PHP Documentation Group.) A single copyright holder can distribute something under multiple licenses, so I don't think the all rights reserved and CC license conflict. Again, this isn't my area of expertise; I'm just trying to act as a responsible conduit. Thanks again, Chris

[PHP-DOC] php manual version information
Hello everyone, Let's talk about our function versioning information, you know, the part about when a function is available in PHP (or PECL). Past situation (~2002-2007): - CVS module named functable - Written in awk - Few knew how it worked - No PECL information Current situation (2008): - phpdoc/scripts/functable.php - It generates phpdoc/phpbook/phpbook-xsl/version.xml - Essentially a port of awk functable to PHP - Eliminated PHP 3 version info - Requires an SQLite database - Relies on function prototypes in source Problems and considerations: - A lot of functions are missing version information - Typically we must manually update the generated version.xml - Some functions go in and out of PECL, or are in both - Prototypes get fixed but it's too late for our system - Our system rechecks every PHP release The system scours the PHP sources by checking out every release (tag) from CVS (since PHP 4.0.0) then determines when: - A function became available in PHP or PECL - A function was removed from PHP or PECL - So basically when the function existed Let's now reconsider this entire process and fix it. There are several questions: 1. How should we store the version information? A. Store version information within each functions file B. ... within each extensions directory (version.xml files per extension) C. ... within one huge version.xml file (as currently done) D. ... This email is getting too long so I'll stop here. Please provide input on this situation in the form of questions, answers, comments, anything... for example you might ask Since a functions born date never changes, why not hardcode it within the functions docs? and I agree but wonder if we're missing something here. Like, would it cause problems for translators? Comments? And on a related note, the following will show you what's missing version information: $ cd phpdoc $ php configure.php $ phd --docbook .manual.xml --theme bightml --verbose VERBOSE_NOVERSION Regards, Philip
[PHP-DOC] php manual as txt
Hi, I've been looking for a php manual as plain txt that could be included within the VIM help system. So far it seems that there have been a few efforts on this, but no one found it's way in the official PHP CVS. Tobias Schlitt[1] wrote about a script phpm[2] from Harald Eide, which isn't available online anymore. Tobias contacted the author several times without any response. phpm was based on a script still available via archive.org[3]. It would be very fine to have a .txt version of the php manual available via CVS (or better SVN ;-) ).

Re: [PHP-DOC] PHP Manual - PDF Format?
The PHP manual is not currently avaliable in PDF format. It will be avaliable in the near future. If you really want a PDF version of the manual, you may compile it yourself throught the CVS XML sources. When we have oficial PDF files, they will be avaliable in the php.net website.

[PHP-DOC] PHP manual translation
Hi all, I have a little confusion about Jade and OpenJade, HOWTO http://www.php.net/manual/howto/chapter-tools.html says that I need either Jade or Openjade but not both. I have downloaded jade-1.2.x-y.src.rpm jadetex-2.x-y.src.rpm psgml-1.2.x-y.src.rpm sgml-common-0.1-3.src.rpm from http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/sourceware/docbook-tools/docware/SRPM S/ but when I try to install Jade (rpm -Uhv jade-1.2.x-y.src.rpm) it gives an error: Failed dependencies, openjade is needed by (installed) scrollkeeper-0.3.11-3 after this error I have downloaded Openjade from openjade.sourceforge.net and got it installed. Now my questions are: 1. Do I need to run rpm -Uhv jade-1.2.x-y.src.rpm again? Actually I did try but the previous error remains. /I thought I need to SETENV or something! for scrollkeeper if so how could I do it? I am rather new to *nix world./ 2. I have Openjade installed so, do I need Jade now? 3. Is there any tool that could verify whether I have set up the environment correctly? /like one in OpenOffice Localization project!/ Please give me your invaluable advices. Regards, Purvee

[PHP-DOC] PHP manual translation in Romanian
Hello, friends ! My name is Iancu Miron and, as you can see from my attached vcard, I'm a physician with informatics background. I have strong knowledge of PHP and I'm building a PHP application for the F. Edward Hebert School of Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland, USA (http://www.usuhs.mil/medschool/schoolmed.html). This will be an online course curriculum. Since I haven't seen any romanian version of PHP manual, I was curious whether you're interested in me translating it. My proposal is to be involved in such a project. Please let me know whether this is possible, desirable and, if so, what are the next steps I should take in order to accomplish this mission. Thank you. Yours, Miron Iancu, MD, PhD, FAAEM Emergency Medicine Medical Informatics Pictor Tattarascu str. 8 74411 Bucharest 3 Romania v: (+401) 3244390 m:(+4093) 194099 http://tom.dnt.ro/ BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:2.1 N:Iancu;Tom FN:Tom Iancu (E-mail) TITLE:Emergency medicine Physician EMAIL;PREF;INTERNET:[EMAIL PROTECTED] REV:20020208T130314Z END:VCARD
[PHP-DOC] PHP manual in an XML format?

Re: [PHP-DOC] php manual in man format
Hi all,
I had no luck with the programs some people on this list suggested :-(
and since I'm too lazy to do it in two steps, I wrote a php script with
some regexp matching to extract what I needed. It's not perfect, it
gives a few screens of warnings when run, but It Works For Me(tm). I now
have 1825 manpages. I have prepended every file with php_ to make the
distinction between other commands/functions and the php functions,
people who don't want that can change the script (it's a very simple
script). Suggestions to handle this would be welcome. Also, I put
section 7 in the header of the pages, I'm not sure how correct this is,
I guess it's ok.
One thing that is not so nice in this script is how sample code is
displayed; I run code parts through indent but it doesn't handle php
tags and html tags very well, and newlines are mostly lost in the man
page. If someone would want to spend some time hacking indent to support
php, I would appreciate a mail on where to get that modified version :-)
cheers,
roel
