#50070 [Opn->WFx]: the See Also sections for string and array functions

ID: 50070 Updated by: danbrown@php.net Reported By: zelnaga at gmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: There's a big difference between strings and arrays. Enough so that it not only wouldn't be worthwhile to implement this request, but would be confusing (particularly to newer developers). In any case, thank you for your suggestion.

Why not mention these in the See Also sections of each function? Reproduce code: --------------- --- From manual page: function.extract#See Also --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50070&edit=1
