What makes you think the online manual is only a reference manual? It doesn't say "Reference Manual" anywhere. It says "PHP Manual". It includes a section called "Language Reference" and it includes another section called "Function Reference", but there is a reason that these are individual sections. If somebody wants to write some good tutorials explaining various concepts in PHP, then they will be added. Have a look through the things in the "Features" section of the manual. -Rasmus
