Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55584&edit=1 ID: 55584 Updated by: bjori@php.net Reported by: chris-php dot net-110905 at aptivate dot org Summary: Please add expires and last-modified support to online documentation -Status: Verified +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: bjori Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The fix for this bug has been committed. Since the websites are not directly updated from the repository, the fix might need some time to spread across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP.net better. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-09-05 11:35:21] bjori@php.net I actually thought we did check the last user note timestamp and last generation time and couple of the include fails. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-09-05 10:30:42] chris-php dot net-110905 at aptivate dot org Thanks, that helps, but I really would like websites to properly implement this so that ISP-level and organisation-level caches actually work, and end users don't have to worry about it, or download multiple copies of the entire documentation just to get a few pages. Bandwidth may be cheap for you, but it's very expensive for us! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-09-05 10:25:26] rquadling@php.net The documentation is downloadable (http://www.php.net/download-docs.php) in multiple forms. The entire manual is generated on a weekly basis. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-09-05 10:19:28] chris-php dot net-110905 at aptivate dot org Description: ------------ I'm having problems accessing the website from Zambia; pages load very slowly even though they have not changed. The online documentation is not cacheable because the server always returns a new page response, with no etag, regardless of the last-modified date sent by the client. Please could you send and check the last-modified header, and also preferably set a reasonable Expires header, e.g. a month? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55584&edit=1
