Bug Type: Documentation problem
Operating System: all
PHP Version: 4.3.0
New Comment:
It seems we are happy enough to add the new section, the question is
where?
Chapter I - Getting Started - Could be renamed to either "Tutorials",
and Getting-Started the first tutorial in that section.
So far, the tutorial section could contain:
- include_path
- php5 patterns
- magic_quotes (info moved from security / faq)
- register_globals (info moved from security / faq)
- command line usage
?- black box design (foo.php?page=contact etc).
?- good sql / database practice (also moved from security section)

+1 from me on the tutorial
also tutorial on cmdline PHP usage would be great

I think a new, broader tutorial section could encompass a lot of
material that has been looking for a home.
The patterns page, a page about include_path, perhaps the magic quotes
and register globals pages? I'd also like a section discussing basic
query string mapping (?page=foo).
Thoughts?

Topic: include_path (PHP_INI_ALL)
It seems that the include_path directive has been confusing some people
lately so let's teach everyone how to use it. This is a request for a
tutorial ("tutorial.include-path") that explains the use include_path.
Topics include:
+ How to set it properly/effectivly using*:
- ini_set() (PHP_INI_USER)
- .htaccess (PHP_INI_PERDIR)
- php.ini (PHP_INI_SYSTEM)
- httpd.conf (PHP_INI_SYSTEM)
See also: config.xml : sec1 configuration.changes
PHP_INI_* table : currently in ini_set() docs
* Another need is an explanation of conf features
in terms of other web servers like IIS (i.e.
windows registry), but that's another topic.
+ It's meaning in relation to:
- include/require
- safe mode
- open_basedir
- allow_url_fopen (filesystem/ini.xml)
- streams
- ini_get
- readfile, file, etc. (mention other stuff that uses include_path)
+ Examples
+ Include all changes (when bugs|features were fixed|added)
This is both a report to gather confirmed facts as well as a reminder
for us to eventually write it. In otherwords, all documentation within
the entire manual on this topic needs evaluating.
