Yes I think it will be very usefull. Maybe the id string from the chapter. A checkdoc output showed the following: php3: 1044 of 1345 functions documented (77% done, 23% remaining). php4: 1044 of 1074 functions documented (97% done, 3% remaining). and I hope I can contribute something after the third printing of our book. Best thing would be also, to write the version numbers in some SGML tags. There is no grouping in the functions reference. Most authors put them in alphabetically. IMHO one deeper level will be (in the sense of chapters and subchapters) more readable and the best for finding the information. A grouping of database related functions would be very handy. I have seen you have handed out such a printed function reference at the O'Reilly Open Software Convention. Is it sorted in some way? Can I have one? -Egon PS: I have now probably a second problem with my mail account. My new email address is: eschmid@s.netic.de My old was working all the the time and it was correct redirected.
