ID: 21970 Comment by: aj_gemmell at yahoo dot com Reported By: philip at cornado dot com Status: Verified Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: all PHP Version: N/A Assigned To: aidan New Comment: I suggest features.safe-mode should also be added to this (how it works, what it does [,when you should use it]) --GwaiLo Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-22 10:17:23] aidan@php.net It seems we are happy enough to add the new section, the question is where? Chapter I - Getting Started - Could be renamed to either "Tutorials", and Getting-Started the first tutorial in that section. So far, the tutorial section could contain: - include_path - php5 patterns - magic_quotes (info moved from security / faq) - register_globals (info moved from security / faq) - command line usage ?- black box design (foo.php?page=contact etc). ?- good sql / database practice (also moved from security section) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-22 10:16:21] aidan@php.net It seems we are happy enough to add the new section, the question is where?

The patterns page, a page about include_path, perhaps the magic quotes and register globals pages? I'd also like a section discussing basic query string mapping (?page=foo). Thoughts? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
