Anyhow, this bug affects all pages that refer to an operator in prose, so any of the linked ones and hundreds more besides. The idea is to change the software that generates the documentation HTML, so all pages will be affected at once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-10-05 12:20:49] teamhydro55555 at gmail dot com I got here from the page where I made the bug and it does affect the split page, so I think it IS correct, let me quote: "[flags] can be any combination of the follwing flags (combined with the <em>|</em> bitwise operator)" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-10-05 12:12:50] salathe@php.net Note that the "from manual page" link is incorrect, it should be http://php.net/operators.bitwise Also moving this to be a PhD bug. It would be nice if we abandoned using "em" tags for code, operators, etc. in prose, and used some more appropriate tag like "code" quiet apart from the visual styling, though that would have the effect of removing the italics. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
