Doc #55304 [Opn->Bgs]: Unable to locate manual for older version on php.net

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55304&edit=1 ID: 55304 Updated by: aharvey@php.net Reported by: blowe at emergeknowledge dot com Summary: Unable to locate manual for older version on php.net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The PHP manual is continuously updated and not written for a particular version: to get information for older versions of PHP, simply look at the version a given function was added in (which is under the function name, right at the top of the page) and the function change log, if it has one. For the record, the manual source is in Subversion at http://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/, although as it's written in Docbook, it's probably not exactly what you want.

The documentation section of the website has documentation only for the latest version of PHP. I see nothing on that page that lets me view docs for older versions. The documentation downloads page lists manuals only the latest version of PHP. I see nothing on that page that lets me get manuals for older versions. The manual does not appear to be distributed with the source code (which is available for downloading): I see no manual or docs subdirectories in the tar, nor do I see HTML, SGML, or info-style markup. Upgrading to the latest version of PHP is not an option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55304&edit=1
