Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66546&edit=1 ID: 66546 Patch added by: girgias@php.net Reported by: greg at areteweb dot co dot uk Summary: Re-wording required to enable correctly documented text for the function Status: Assigned Type: Documentation Problem Package: Arrays related PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: girgias Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: doc-fix-66546 Revision: 1548007209 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=66546&patch=doc-fix-66546&revision=1548007209 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-22 16:56:08] greg at areteweb dot co dot uk Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.in-array --- In the "Description" section, the document states: > Searches haystack for needle using loose comparison unless strict is set. As the function requires "needle" then "haystack", it would make sense to reword the statement to reflect the function's actual requirements. e.g. change to: > Searches with needle in haystack using loose comparison unless strict is set. It may seem pedantic, but the wording in the current sentence sincerely confused me and I was having errors with the function until I read examples and found the function required needle then haystack. This change would also bring continuity to the in_array documentation and match the "Parameters" and "Examples" sections.
