Hi Hannes:
The idea is to first refactor it with minimum changes so translators don't have to retranslate the entire thing again. Then after the commit it is easy to make any further adjustments, but yeah. That should be noted.
Yeah. Was thinking the same thing. Thanks for the the fixes, and of course the whole reworking.
This is a great change to the docs, except the first page looks odd with "Superglobals" essentially being listed twice. Moving that part to its own little section seems like a good choice.
You mean splitting the page in two <reference>s, one for superglobals and one for "others"?
I agree, it feels a bit weird looking at it at first sight, but the TOC contains all predefined-variables, not only superglobals...
I mean have a page that talks about what superglobals are, and it'd include that superglobals list. So basically this means move language.variables.superglobals outside of the partintro in variables.xml to a new page like variables/superglobals.xml even though superglobals isn't a variable itself. variables.xml would then include it on top of the others. And as a side effect, we could move information that clutters up each superglobal page into it... information that although relevant could be in one location. Like the register_globals and variable scope comments. Regards, Philip
