> We could add a robots.txt which disallows any access to that subdomain

The docs.php.net web server already adds the following header to responses:

    X-Robots-Tag: noindex, nofollow

This instructs robots to not index pages, nor crawl links on pages, under docs.php.net.

Not sure what to do here.  We could add a robots.txt which
disallows any access to that subdomain, or shut it down
altogether.  The proper documentation is available on php.net
anyway.

> So does it means its not longer available in PHP 7.x ?

Only the documentation has been moved; the extension is still
maintained and available from PECL[1].

So does it means its not longer available in PHP 7.x ?
I think it was much more interesting rather the old gopher protocol.
Im not an expert in PHP, but why this was removed? Or is it still working in PHP7?
Im confused here a little.

The documentation about PECL/http has been removed on request of
the extension maintainer, and is available elsewhere[1].

The http book is no longer available in the manual proper[2], but
some out-dated translations may still provide it on docs.php.net
which is intended.  However, we probably should tell search
engines to ignore docs.php.net altogether.

Description:
------------
Hello,

I recently found on docs.php.net a interesting behavour, I saw that http_post_fields exist there: http://docs.php.net/manual/da/refs.remote.other.php
but only if you switch the language to "other", you can not find it on the search or in
english language version.

In the new https://www.php.net/manual/ its totally
missing, but there are really helpful information, which make the manual incomplete.

I think this is a bug and I wanted report it here.

Thanks
