In my mind, a lot of the above are separate, special purpose functions specific to a platform or library. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-12-04 12:13:07] krakjoe@php.net So, is this a won't-fix or what ? It seems like it may be even more confusing to redirect to the old url, because the content has change. If it's won't-fix can someone update, or update with a plan please ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-11-23 22:00:18] bjori@php.net Right, this list is the same as http://us1.php.net/manual/en/indexes.functions.php Just not using 3columns, and actually lists all functions and methods (correctly). The previous quickref list was based on filenames, which therefore was completely wrong for the vast majority of methods, and also missed a lot of functions (or methods) that are documented on the same page. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-11-23 21:26:34] gary dot johnson dot 53 at gmail dot com This : http://us1.php.net/quickref.php use to generate a 3 column listing of the most commonly called functions. you can see a snapshot at http://archive.org/web/ if your enter the url or I uploaded a screenshot to here http://garyjohnsoninfo.info/quickref.png I think I confused the issue with When quickref went away, I activated the Firefox PHP developer toolbar. Unfortunately, the quick ref search no longer works. Its unrelated Its really not that big a deal. I work in a bunch of languages. What I found helpful about the 3 column display was, often times I would review the list and I would be reminded, "That's what php calls it". ( as opposed to Javascipt, perl, python bash etc) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-11-23 20:49:12] bjori@php.net I am little bit confused of how you think quickref.php used to work. Are you talking about http://us3.php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=strpo&scope=quickref for example? That is still available... The quickref.php functionality that was removed was the full filename listing of the manual, which was insanely unbearably slow ofcourse. The function index listing lists the same things, just using the documentation index file for *much* faster rendering along with the description of individual function - so is a drastic improvement. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
