ID: 20870 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: philip@cornado.com Status: Open Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: all PHP Version: 4CVS-2002-12-06 (dev) New Comment: The redirect is not strange at all. If a page is not found (like installation.apache2 - because install.apache2 can show you the right page), the search feature comes up. It tries to find a page with these keywords in it's name and/or content. The search feature has some bugs, but it's powered by htdig AFAIK, and it's not something we can correct here... The links provided by the search engine are full URLs, and not relative ones, so the problem is not with relative URLs... I have no idea, how to correct this... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-06 18:06:01] philip@cornado.com Here's an example: http://www.php.net/installation.apache2 Which gives options like: /manual/en/index.php/cs/fi/installation.php /manual/en/index.php/cs/de/faq.installation.php So for example if you view one of these bogus links: http://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php/cs/de/faq.installation.php It shows a page almost identical to: http://www.php.net/manual/ Except all the links within also link to bogus pages, like, clicking on preface gives us: http://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php/cs/de/preface.php There seems to be a pattern here but I can't see it right now. Another example: php.net/configuration.foo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20870&edit=1
