#42788 [NEW]: Website inaccessibility

From: shop at imaginatorium dot org Operating system: Linux (irrelevant) PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Website problem Bug description: Website inaccessibility Description: ------------ The php.net website does "prejudicial redirection". It looks up the user's IP, decides what country the user is in, and falsely assumes that this determines the language the user wants to read the manual in. This is a ***totally stupid idea***, so please stop doing it. There is no obvious way, even though I can read Japanese, for me to get back from the Japanese version of the manual to the one that the google search directed me to. Please, there are no ifs and buts - if a web search shows page x, that is what you should show. I don't know if it's possible to complain to google to have you barred for (effectively) cloaking one page with another, but if necessary I will complain. I hope you can agree to make a rapid conversion to proper behaviour. Thanks.
