Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77166&edit=1 ID: 77166 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: ethan at zbee dot me Summary: Variable Variables URL is variables.variable not variable.variables -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Documentation Problem Package: Website problem Operating System: Windows 7 PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The periods in "language.variables.variable" indicate structure. Each part is a slug. If anything the page would be "language.variables.variable-variables" but that's getting rather silly. The page is in the "language" reference, in the "variables" section, and deals with the "variable" usage of variables. It's fine. Even if, the URL has existed for ages and renaming it just for this doesn't justify breaking existing links to it. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-11-15 22:22:58] ethan at zbee dot me Description: ------------ The URL to documentation on variable variables, is http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php however it should be http://php.net/manual/en/language.variable.variables.php as this correctly coincides with both the title of the page and the concept in PHP. Expected result: ---------------- http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php 404's out http://php.net/manual/en/language.variable.variables.php works Actual result: -------------- http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php works http://php.net/manual/en/language.variable.variables.php 404's out ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77166&edit=1
