The link texts are, however, unfortunate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-04-28 00:07:19] frank dot h dot ellenberger at gmail dot com Lets start with the structure of the english version: https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php links with label "Reserved Predefined Variables" to /manual/en/reserved.variables.php Both have title "Predefined Variables". In German we have https://www.php.net/manual/de/language.variables.predefined.php linking with label "Vordefinierte Variablen" to /manual/de/reserved.variables.php Both have title "Vordefinierte Variablen" So, 2 different pages with the same title is confusing. The first title is OK, the second should be different. As newby to PHP I am not entitled to decide, if "Reserved" is the right word or if there exists something better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-04-27 23:37:48] requinix@php.net They aren't actually reserved, though. You can assign to and overwrite them if you wish. $_GET, $_POST, even $GLOBALS. It's bad practice, but you *could*. Additionally the page linked to calls itself "Predefined Variables". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-04-27 23:23:42] frank dot h dot ellenberger at gmail dot com Oh, it seems to be a translation issue. The engl en: Reserved Predefined Variables de: Vordefinierte Variablen ("Reservierte " is missing) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
