Hi,

Hi Nuno :)

As you know I'm new here. Now I would like to know what can I do to

help.

(please give me easy things first because I'm not a docbook expert...)

for me it will be a coffee and .. sorry. A long time ago, Phillip (someone told me that) have started a big battle to have an example for each function in the manual. Not so long ago, I've did the same thing, but lost the script :-s Today Dave Carr have rewritten the script, and it works like a charm. I'm sure he will be glad to share it with you. For the moment, here's an interface to see what function need an example : http://didou.keliglia.com/phpdoc/missing.php The docbook syntax to add an example is : <para> <example> <title></title> <programlisting role="php"> <![CDATA[ <?php // example ?> ]]> </programlisting> </example> </para> If your example output something huge (a print_r() for example), and you want to show it to the user, use this : <para> <example> <title></title> <programlisting role="php"> <![CDATA[ <?php var_dump(get_defined_vars()); ?> ]]> </programlisting> <para> The above example will output: </para> <screen> <![CDATA[ Array ( .... ) ]]> </screen> </example> </para> Please : - make test before each commit - use coding standards in the PHP examples - don't add example to aliases or deprecated functions Have fun ;) didou
