Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30139&edit=1 ID: 30139 Updated by: kalle@php.net Reported by: phpbugs at everythingbuffy dot com Summary: Link phpinfo() modules to manual -Status: Open +Status: Analyzed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: PHP options/info functions Operating System: XP Home PHP Version: 5.0.1 Block user comment: N Private report: N Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-08-23 00:37:34] kalle@php.net Like Johannes said it requires extending the module_entry, while it can be introduced in a minor version, it does mean another #ifdef for cross version compatibility, so probably best in the next major version, tho I don't expect this to be a large use ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-21 19:41:01] johannes@php.net It is not that easy as PHP extensions might come from third party sources. This requires extending the module_entry structure. (zend_extions interestingly provide this functionality ...) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-18 16:34:06] phpbugs at everythingbuffy dot com Description: ------------ To make it easier to find information for items enabled in the PHP build why not link the output of phpinfo() to the specific manual pages? This would be easy to achieve, as follows: In /ext/standard/info.c change line 70 from: php_printf("<h2><a name=\"module_%s\">%s</a></h2>\n", module->name, module->name); To: php_printf("<h2><a href=\"http://www.php.net/%s\" title=\"%s\">%s</a></h2>\n", module->name, module->name, module->name); Thank you Sean :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30139&edit=1
