ID: 38911 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: jaes at gogo dot co dot nz Status: Open Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: NA PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: The idea behind removing printer-friendly versions is that these days every page should be printer-friendly. And php.net manuals pages are nicely printing nowadays. The jEdit InfoViewer Plugin is capable of using an external browser to display pages, and people use it successfuly this way.

These versions were extremely useful for loading into embedded viewers in editors as a context-help for php functions while programming. In particular, the InfoViewer Plugin for jEdit, through the infoviewer-help macro used the printer friendly versions to display context help for PHP functions in jEdit. Unfortunatly context help for PHP functions in jEdit, with user notes is now unusable because of the deficiencies in Java's HTML display widget, making the non-printer-friendly page unreadable. As I say, these versions appear to have vanished, I've searched around but I can't even see any discussion that has occurred regarding the removal of these versions, as far as I can see somebody "took the initiative" and deleted them. I would like to request that these versions are restored to thier rightful place. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38911&edit=1
