Author #37325 [NEW]: Minor proofreading glitches

From: a at b dot c dot de
Operating system: any
PHP version: Irrelevant
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: Minor proofreading glitches

Description:
------------
A few small typos that I happened to notice. Filenames from the HTML
version are given as locators (http://www.php.net/manual/en/***)

migration5.oop.php
------------------
"....or pass as a parameter to a method."
"pass" should be "passed"


migration5.functions.php
------------------------
"iconv_strrpos() - Finds the last occurrence of a needle within the
specified range of haystack"
Should this contain the phrase "range of"? It also appears on the main
iconv_strrpos() page, but doesn't seem to relate to anything (except the
charset?). iconv_strpos() doesn't mention ranges. Nor does strrpos().

"time_nanosleep() - Delay for a number of seconds and nano seconds"
"nano seconds" should be "nanoseconds".

"curl_copy_handle() - Copy a cURL handle along with all of it's
preferences"
"it's preferences" should be "its preferences".

"imagefilter() - Applies Filter an image using a custom angle"
The closest interpretation of this would seem to be "Applies a filter to
an image using custom arguments". All the imagefilter() page says is
"Applies a filter to an image".

"setrawcookie() - Send a cookie with no url encoding of the value"
"url" should be "URL"; or (to be consistent with an earlier appearance in
the page of the term) "URL-encoding".


idate.php
---------
"Note: As idate() returns always an integer and as they can't start with
a "0", idate() may return less digits then you would expect. See the
example below:"
Two (arguably three) grammatical errors:
- "less" should be "fewer";
- "then" should be "than";
- "returns always" should probably be "always returns".


about.howtohelp.php
-------------------
"Note: .... Instead, one of the many support options"
Instead, one" should be "Instead, use one" and "options" should be
followed by a full stop.

Reproduce code:
---------------
This isn't a code-related bug :)
