This appears resolved as searching for a string such as "notstrpos" displays 
the function listing page 
(http://php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=nostrpos&scope=quickref) and should 
you select to search the entire site, "l" is an included parameter now 
(http://php.net/results.php?q=nostrpos&l=en&p=all).

Description:
------------
[I originally sent this message to '[email protected]'
and received a reply from Hannes Magnusson, requesting that I submit it as a 
bug report here.]

[This item bears a resemblance to bug report #20966 from 2005, but is not 
identical, and I think the problem bears investigation.]

I'd like to bring to your attention a problem I've encountered frequently when 
searching the online documentation at php.net.

After typing in my search string, I find that that results include multiple 
redundant items, the only difference between them being that they originate in 
versions of the documentation for different languages.

E.g.,  php.net/manual/en/function.pg-result-status.php,  
php.net/manual/hk/function.pg-result-status.php,
php.net/manual/hu/function.pg-result-status.php,  
php.net/manual/tw/function.pg-result-status.php, etc.

This results in a needless expansion of the search results, and hinders the 
process of scanning the list for relevant items. 

Is there any way of limiting a search to the documentation in a particular 
language? 
That would greatly improve the accuracy and usefulness of the search utility.

Thank you very much for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,
