> - <type>resource</type><methodname>dba_open</methodname> > + <type>resource|false</type><methodname>dba_open</methodname> Can you please explain the addition of false here? Does this return false on failure? Or will it at some point return false yet not fail? That would be odd. Anyway, please explain. If it just returns false on failure, false does not get listed here but rather it's described later on in the description. If a function happens to return different types while not failing, it's labeled as mixed.
