About This Document

This document contains information important for the PHP Documentation Group members. If you are interested in the documentation of PHP, you are at the wrong place, see http://www.php.net/docs for downloadable documentation.

Currently this HOWTO is “under construction”. When this document will be ready, you will find sections here about generating HTML documentation from XML sources, adding new XML files, or using XSL style sheets to process the source files.

The latest copy of this HOWTO can be downloaded from the web at: http://php.net/get/dochowto, and it can be read at http://php.net/manual/howto.

There is also a very short README in phpdoc complementing this HOWTO, in which you can find short checklists to read before committing modifications or adding new parts.

Credits

This document is based on many files, previously hosted in the phpdoc module at cvs.php.net, containg information about several distinct subjects, ranging from generating the HTML files from XML sources to starting a new translation. This is a central place for all these things. We tried to include the original authors in the authors list of this file.
