ID: 43465 Updated by: bjori@php.net Reported By: dave dot martin at office dot casema dot nl -Status: Open +Status: Assigned Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: bjori New Comment: We already have that list: http://no.php.net/manual/en/extensions.membership.php That list however was removed in the new reference structure, I suppose we should add it in again. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-30 15:39:12] dave dot martin at office dot casema dot nl @bjori, It looks better. Personally I would still split it up into PHP Core and Extended Functions. It still take a lot of digging and its almost impossible to determine the full capability of basic PHP here. Session Handling - Everyone uses these and needs to know about them. Not many are interested in Mohawk, muscat or SessionPgsql (I would guess). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-30 14:46:33] bjori@php.net We are working on restructuring the documentations, see http://docs.php.net/funcref http://docs.php.net/manual/en/refs.basic.text.php Feedback is greatly appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-30 14:39:06] dave dot martin at office dot casema dot nl Looking at it again, anything thats doesn' require external libraries or special installation should be in e new section 'Extended Functions' or something, and the Core stuff in 'Core Functions' I might get to undertand what its all about! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-30 14:34:45] dave dot martin at office dot casema dot nl Description: ------------ I really would like to see the docs split up into what's standard php and whats not. Particularly the functions. IF I want to know what I can do with strings or arrays or booleans or collections or objects I dont want to have to wade through LDAP functions or Monetary payment functions or even Oracle or Sybase. Any chance? I can't see the wood for the trees at the moment! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43465&edit=1
