Nice done;-) I only had a brief look, but following comes to my mind: Manual Installation Steps: I would like to advice people to use php-(sapiname).ini or at least mention this somewhere. I like to suggest that setup of a valid php.ini file is moved to the server specific instructions. Because one can run php just fine without any ini-file, you need this mainly for enabling extensions, or setting specific instructions. Windows and PWS 4 or newer Instructions for php 5 are missing, filenames imply its for php 4 only (e.g.: pws-php4cgi.reg) Same for Windows NT/2000/XP and IIS 4 or newer (e.g: php4isapi.dll) At the latest reading the instructions for IIS/PWS it is not clear to me, where the ini-file should go, therefore my above suggestion to provide this sort of info perhaps in the server specific instructions ( at keast for the sapi modules) Don't take this offending, jst a few thoughts after a very quick look;-) > And if yes, can I do the change to the new install section IMHO commit your nice work to the new install section, once it is there it can be easily reviewed and tweaked up, if needed. > (including > removing the old chapters/instal./.xml)? There's no hurry to remove the old files;-) Friedhelm -- http://www.jungle-world.com/
