From: soletan at toxa dot de Operating system: WinXP PHP version: 5.0.3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Request for revisiting your online manual
Description: ------------ Hi, I'm using your online manual as reference while coding each and every day. I prefer to use that over any book or similar since I consider it to be always most uptodate over those. Furthermore user notes are quite helpful very often. BUT: Again and again I don't see any sense in having such huge front page on each extension. Did you ever try to find the list of supported methods on Multibyte String Extension's front page? While looking for that I'm neither interested in information how to install that extension, how to configure transparent IO-encoding or on what each charset is about to be. Even "moving to bottom of page" doesn't satisfy as there might be lots of user notes with further suggestions on how to install here, configure there etc. Of course, ALL these information are worth to be available, but why couldn't you have some subpages since they become more and more complex with each new release of PHP. And normally users stop installing some day and even configuration is done, right before the developer starts to use your manual as a reference for daily work. Sometimes I simply can't remember what was the name of a single function or what options I have to do this or that using single selection. So using shorthand access using URL is no good tool just like searching whole PHP's function list. Well, simplest adjustment would be to have a page menu on top to click for the function list (as well as installation notes, list of defined constants, user notes, etc.). This would avoid getting more files in PHP manual folder. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32012&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32012&r=mysqlcfg
