#30035 [Opn]: php.net/instanceof leads nowhere

ID:          30035
Updated by:  betz@php.net
Reported By: mfischer@php.net
Status:      Open
Bug Type:    Documentation problem
PHP Version: 5.0.1
New Comment:

instanceof is found at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/langua...rators.type.php
This will never be catched by find_manual_page_slow().
A possible solution could be a shortcut in error.php like:
$ cvs diff error.php
Index: error.php

http://php.net/something is not only for function lookups, there are
quite a few shortcuts, like http://php.net/getphp or
http://php.net/whatisphp or http://php.net/install and even
http://php.net/pear

Look into find_manual_page_slow() in
http://php.net/source.php?url=/incl...nual-lookup.inc to get an idea
of how manual pages are looked up. Reference sections, control
structures and other stuff are also matched. If the manual page has a
proper ID, then it should end up being found by such a php.net lookup.

But instanceof is a bitdifferent, as we don't have those hardcoded
redirects for any of our control keywords AFAIK.

Not possible that it only relies on functions. I made a similiar
request about http://php.net/php5 and at was promptly done by Derick.

actually doesn't the /whatever only reference functions? as instanceof
isn't a function it wont be referenced by that. I'm not too sure why
the google search isn't picking it up though

Ah, I understand what you mean now.

Not sure whether possible for me to fix this, so I'll flag it up as
verified for now
