..but we could create our own home made TOC with something like:
<simplelist>
<member><xref linkend="reflection.introduction" /></member>
<member><xref linkend="reflection.reflectionexception" /></member>
<member><xref linkend="reflection.reflectionparameter" /></member>
...
</simplelist>

Feels really dirty but it will get the job done until we refactor these
docs.

Philip: what do you think?

That is exactly what I am saying.
This is a limitation in the DocBook-XSL stylesheets.

These two pages use totally different markup, not even remotely close.
And no. We cannot use this markup for reflection.

@bjori:

Are you saying the current build system can't handle the changes I
suggested to the HTML?

I just went to quickly find something that behaves similarly to what I
would expect:

http://ca.php.net/manual/en/language.functions.php

On this page, at the top it has a TOC, and the first link goes down to
an anchor on the page.  Maybe it can't be put in the box with all the
class names I mentioned, but can't there be a TOC at least?

I agree, but this won't change using the current build system.
I also think we should refactor those docs into the funcref where all
other extensions are documented.

The main problem here is the fact our OO docs simply suck and I am
looking into how we can make them better.

Granted, but there doesn't seem to be any reference to any of them on
that page itself?

What envision being a LOT more user-friendly and intuitive is at the
very top of that page, in the box that lists out all the classes, have
the class name be a link to the anchor for that particular class.  I
don't find it easy to scroll through the page and find a particular
class.
