From: Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:link() confusing parameter description Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.link#Parameters --- the parameter 1 - "from_path" is described as "The link name" the parameter 2 - "to_path" is described as "Target of the link" I think that it is confusing and the descriptions should be swapped. It is inconsistent with the symlink() terminology which is correct IMHO. Maybe renaming the parameters as $existing_file and $new_hardlink would remove the confusion completely.
