Re: Manual nomenclature

Thats not what he is asking. He is asking what the colors in the prototype mean. mixed strpos ( string $haystack , mixed $needle [, int $offset = 0 ] ) on the website, the types are green in the proto, the initializer (including the = sign) are purple/pink etc etc. This prototype has more, and different, colors then highlight_string() offers btw - but again, he isn't complaining about the highlight_string() docs - just asking what the colors in the proto mean. We document the proto on http://php.net/about.prototypes - but don't say anything about the coloring. -Hannes On Thu, Feb 26, 2015 at 2:09 AM, Maciek Sokolewicz <maciek.sokolewicz@gmail.com> wrote: > On 25-2-2015 20:38, Hannes Magnusson wrote: >> >> On Wed, Feb 25, 2015 at 9:13 AM, Elmer Beardshall >> <aebeardshall@comcast.net> wrote: >>> >>> Where is the guide to the color coding and explanation of the manual. >>> Example below – green is ? >>> >> >> >> >> >> Interesting question. >> >> We don't actually even follow >> http://php.net/highlight_string so... >> >> Maybe we should add this to http://php.net/about.prototypes >> ? >> >> -Hannes >> > > > Hi Elmers, > PHP's highlight_string uses just a very small number of colors, which are > defined in http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_highlight.h#25æù > =öîW¹ó"Œ‘´WK > > Basically that means: > Text/HTML: black (#000000) > Comments: orange (#FF8000) > Tags, trait names, function names, method names, class names, etc.: blue > (#0000BB) > Encapsulated strings: red (#DD0000) > (reserved) Keywords: green (#007700) such as echo, print, etc.). > > I agree this should be put in a more readable format on the highlight_string > and _file pages IMO.
