#21460 [NEW]: Online manual doc issue

From: php@pgregg.com Operating system: n/a PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Online manual doc issue In function.file-get-contents.php it says "Identical to readfile(), except that file_get_contents() returns the file in a string." which is wrong... (or misleading at best)... readfile() immediately outputs the file and the return value from the function is success or failure. file_get_contents() does not behave like this at all. I would suggest that the document reads: "Identical to file(), except that file_get_contents() returns the file in a string." Since the return values from both functions are the contents of the file, just in different formats (array vs string).
