Please don't use the php.net website structure. You are probably not that idealess that you have no other vision to make the site... If you use our design, it hurts our identity... It would also imply for your visitors, that we endorse your product or site, or you are an official project, which is simply not true. Please build up your own site, and don't start off with our layout... Goba [one webmaster@php.net]
