This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.
"The first element in this array has count key and represents the
number of returned values, next elements are numerically indexed DN
components."

Description:
------------
The documentation for ldap_explode_dn says that the return value should
be "Returns an array of all DN components.". Not only is this vague (a
separate problem), it fails to document that the returned array is an
associative array where the first key/value being 'count' => (integer),
where the count is the total number of elements in the array.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$dn="cn=example,dc=example,dc=com";
var_dump(ldap_explode_dn($dn,0));
Expected result:
----------------
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(19) "cn=example"
[1]=>
string(19) "dc=example"
[2]=>
string(4) "dc=com"
}
Actual result:
--------------
array(3) {
["count"]=>
int(3)
[0]=>
string(19) "cn=example"
[1]=>
string(19) "dc=example"
[2]=>
string(4) "dc=com"
}
