The docs are in SVN under the "phpdoc" module; See http://wiki.php.net/doc/phd for how to render the docs. The user notes are not bundled with the docs, they are stored in a database on master.php.net. Every hour we push updates to all mirrors. These updates fetch the usernotes from the database and create bunch of little files in backend/. Use the "view source" option on all php.net pages to dig into how things works, or ask for detailed overview if you are seriously interested. > Is there any way to create a unix (aka HTML) manual with user notes > like the windows CHM file? I don't know why unix is also known as HTML :] We do offer unix manual pages (man pages) of the docs: $ pear install doc.php.net/pman $ pman strpos To render the HTML and automatically include the usernotes is a bit tricky, and something we haven't done yet. Note; The CHM files do not contain the user notes either. -Hannes
