This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

Validation of Exif data would be to check if the contents of a given tag conform to the value it's supposed to hold according to the Exif specification ( see: http://exif.org/Exif2-2.PDF , page 20), for example a tag which should hold a BYTE (according to the spec) should not hold anything besides an 8bit integer, short should not be anything besides a 16 bit unsigned integer and so on. I'm not suggesting that exif_read_data() does this (if it doesn't) but merely that the documentation be updated to state whether or not it does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32986&edit=1
