The possible values are documented on a separate page within the OpenSSL chapter (namely "Key/Certificate Parameters"), but the function pages have blank parameter descriptions. It would be better if they either linked to the Key/Certificate Parameters page or included the text on the acceptable values themselves. openssl_x509_export() is an example that shows the problem: note the blank description under the x509 parameter. A similar issue also appears to apply to public and private key parameters within the OpenSSL documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51790&edit=1
