I'll patch that in the XML sources now, and the next time > the manual rebuilds, the changes will take effect. precisely the point i was trying to make, but i might avoid the use of the word "unavailable" since that's still slightly ambiguous. it makes it seem like it's still there somehow, you just can't get to it. i would be more direct, something like "*removed* as of PHP 6." then there's no confusion. > For the future, please report such things as Documentation > Problems at http://bugs.php.net/. ok, will do. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
