Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51678&edit=1 ID: 51678 Comment by: techtonik@php.net Reported by: techtonik@php.net Summary: Bring xCHM download back for historical purpose Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: rquadling Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I'd still place it into museum for PHP4. CSS styling was awesome. IIRC comments were split, because of CHM size limitations. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-07 00:16:45] rquadling@php.net The new enhanced chm format includes the user notes, like the old "extended" chm file. It does not include ability for the end user to create alternative "skins" for the CHM file. It was also a lot easier to simply incorporate the user notes into the main body of the HTML than to have 2 separate CHM files (manual and notes) and then to use JavaScript to merge the content like the old extended CHM files. As it stands, there is nothing else to be done new enhanced format with regard to the user notes. When the new PHP website re-styling is complete, the finalised styling will be incorporated into the CHM files. This is all ready to go. If you are in a position to build your own CHM files, then you take a look at http://svn.php.net/viewvc/phpdoc/doc-base/trunk/scripts/build-chms.php? revision=310810&view=markup#l187 to see how to include the current styling into the CHM files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-06 21:44:21] bjori@php.net Seems like Richard took the trouble and re-implemented the extended CHM into PhD. We are having some trouble with copying it over to the rsync box so it can be synced to the mirrors though.. Looking into it at ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-28 10:50:31] techtonik@php.net Let me disagree with you. I think it deserves to be placed at least at http://museum.php.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-28 10:00:59] bjori@php.net It contains severely outdated information and does us more harm then good. If you really really want it, then you'll need to look into some archives, but we cannot and will not advocate using several years old documentations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-28 09:42:07] techtonik@php.net Description: ------------ Extended version of CHM manual illustrated the most advanced usage of CHM on the web. It would still be nice to be able to download it. It was named php_manual_chm.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51678&edit=1
