Hello,
Chm format manual downloaded from http://weblabor.hu/php-doc-chm/php_manual_sample_5.zip
has many more problems.
JavaScript errors:
I wrote earlier about broken links and JavaScript errors. Later I found that these links were
actually not broken but there was problem with JavaScript and thats why links were broken. Then I
removed file php_manual_notes.chm from the directory where php_manual_en.chm was present and then
opened php_manual_en.chm and everything worked fine.
Search highlighting problem.
Second problem is when searching using search box many times matches are shown but no keyword on the
searched page is highlighted (because only half word etc. matches as in --enable-overload only
overload matches). In the options menu search highlight is on. If for example, "enable"
and "overload" are treated as two words(which it should not because there is no whitespace
in the word --enable-overload) , not one, by search engine than they should be both highlighted
separately. So that one can see at least which word matches) For example when I searched for
"--enable-aggregate" one result was shown but when clicked that link no keyword was
highlighted on that page
Also when I searched for --enable-overload, there were 8 matches. When I clicked the first one
"Complete list of configure options" no keyword on the second page was highlighted.
Copy and find in this page are must.
Because a custom menu is displayed when right clicking on a page opened in the display pane we
cannot copy source code or other text as there is no copy item in the pop-up menu, without using
Ctrl-C. Find in this page is also missing. This is more important in a large page like where all
function links are displayed
No all function list on first page.
First link in TOC (first page) "PHP Manual" should not display complete function list of
all extensions only categories should be displayed(as is done in no chm version). Complete function
list of all extensions can be provided on a separate page as has been already done ( in Part IV.
Function Reference page) but not on the first page itself.
