Hi Curt!

Seems to be a good suggestion to me. Probably it would be better to submit a bug report, so we will take care of this, and won't forget.

hello,

I'm not sure where the best place to post a fix in the
documentation. Should I attach a note to the documentation or
submit a documentation bug at bugs.php.net?

btw, I've been considering joining the php-doc team. I'm just
curious if you guys are in need for another person?  At this point
I've just been poking around the documentation system and seeing
how every thing is done before committing myself.


The documentation error is as follows:


function wordwrap:

----
Example 1:
$text = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.";
$newtext = wordwrap( $text, 20 );
echo "$newtext\n";

Example 1 output:
The quick brown fox
jumped over the lazy dog.
---


This is rather misleading to new users they seem to be expecting
their output to be shown with carriage returns in html (since php
defaults with text/html mime-type.) Perhaps using a <pre> tag
around output:

echo "<pre>$newtext</pre>"

Or using the break parameter in the function:

$newtext = wordwrap( $text, 20, '<br>');

This applies to both example 1 and 2.

Thanks,
Curt
