Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52179&edit=1 ID: 52179 User updated by: jhpfraser at gmail dot com Reported by: jhpfraser at gmail dot com Summary: Please make php keywords, special variables, etc more easily searchable Status: Verified Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: http://php.net/$_SERVER etc is something I didn't know about and will be very useful for my future doc searches - thank you for the comment. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-06-25 09:51:34] bjori@php.net The preferred search mechanism is php.net/<foobar>. http://php.net/$_SERVER for example works. This is however something we should look better into :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-06-25 02:52:41] jhpfraser at gmail dot com Description: ------------ for example typing $_SERVER into the search box, or foreach, or try, or __FILE__ should easily return the docs for the appropriate keyword/control structure OR function OR special variable without wading through pages of irrelevant junk, and without having to change the drop-down every time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52179&edit=1
