That being said. How about adding the “show source” function (eyes on the future here) like php.net offers on the bottom of every page (not many people are aware of this)?

People could learn a lot from it…

Andries – That’s a good idea. We’re going to be implementing search eventually so we’ll have a simple input box that should take care of this. However, I agree that searching in the URI like php.net does is very convenient. Perhaps we can do something like this in the future also.

Luke – I agree. I’ve added some whitespace to the left margin. Thanks for the suggestion.

Very nice. May I suggest adding a little space on the left hand margin. It looks a little cramped the way it currently is.

Very nice job MIke!

Having user-contributed notes would be super! A lot of people learn there stuff by looking at examples.

One of the great things of the php manual is that you can access the documentation of a certain function by typing php.net/functionname. It would be great if the ZF could adopt this way of working. eg. framework.zend.com/Zend_Controller

I haven’t made any plans to implement them at this time but it wouldn’t be difficult. However, it would mean we’d have to maintain them. Your opinion on it is welcome.

Very snazzy. Well done, Mike!

I’ll go ahead and ask this inevitable question – given the success of PHP’s manual, are there plans to allow user-contributed notes?
