ID: 12708 Updated by: goba Reported By: charlivm@eircom.net Old Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: win2k PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: It is intentional. As many mirrors do not support search, when you try to search on a mirror, it just redirects you to here (php.net). Then the results must be displayed on the mirror, as otherwise you would continue to browse the main site, and lose your mirror. There are many unofficial (eg. corporate intranet) mirrors not listed in our mirror list, and this feature is working for them too... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-12 15:41:04] charlivm@eircom.net I clicked through to php.net from the output of a phpinfo() call in a script on my site, and proceeded through a few pages. I used the search function at php.net and, on the results page, it found some documents fine, but the links to those documents were NOT pointing to php.net - they were pointing to MY site! One of the links was: http://www.sleepygeek.org/manual/en/ref.pgsql.php Which should obviously have been http://www.php.net/-etc Something to do with the http-referer header, I'd guess. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12708&edit=1
