#34279 [Opn->Fbk]: php.net/clone not showing

ID: 34279 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: csaba at alum dot mit dot edu -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Fact is that noone compiled an exhaustive list of missing aliases. Look into php.net/source.php?url=/error.php (search for $uri_aliases), some language constructs are aliased, some are not. We would appreciate if you could compile a list. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-31 13:05:01] csaba at alum dot mit dot edu Perhaps so, but every single item that has "is a language construct" or "but a language construct" on the php.net site is reachable with the url short form. That list is part of: echo, print, die, exit, return, array, list, empty, isset, unset, include, include_once, require, require_once, throw, catch I included the additional throw, catch since some other web site stated that they were language constructs. Language constructs, as far as I could find, are not discussed on the PHP website at all except to say that a language construct cannot be passed as a (callback) function, or might not need parentheses. As far as almost any user is concerned for documentation lookup purposes, any distinction should be irrelevant. Furthermore, I would suggest that the other language constructs/keywords missing from such short form lookup should be upgraded. The idea is to make the excellent PHP documentation even more accessible.
