RE: [PEAR-DEV] PhpDocumentor: PHP5 vs PHP4

My first rationalization was "wouldn't PHP5 be the one doing 'more' than PHP4", but it's PHP4 wrapping the items in hyperlinks while PHP5 does nothing. My next thought was perhaps these were private/protected items and PHP4 was blindly treating everything as public... I'm running some doc generations right now with "-pp on" to see if the results do NOT exhibit the same differences in behavior. However, the more I think about it, the less I think this is the case. My current path now is twofold: - the set of differences where PHP4 is wrapping hyperlinks and PHP5 isn't just happened to all be inline @link tags; - the next set was source code blocks (<code></code>) in a tutorial, where docblocks inside that source code are being properly highlighted by PHP5 (class="src-doc") but not by PHP4 (class="src-comm"); Hmmm..
