| Not really, I find it much easier to learn how to use something hands on, than wading through a manual. | |||

Originally posted by Liquid Pi ExperimentThe examples on PHP.net, explained per function, aren't huge tutorials. An example, in this case strlen(). ---------- Description int strlen ( string string ) Returns the length of the given string. Example 1. A strlen() example <?php $str = 'abcdef'; echo strlen($str); // 6 $str = ' ab cd '; echo strlen($str); // 7 ?> ---------- How is that in any way more complicated or more work than going through someone's else code and look for it? |

| I myself hate huge tutorials (usually; few are helpful) but PHP.net is essential if you want to learn new functions to go above and beyond something. Like Narf said (omgiagreewtfman) it's just a list of functions, what they do, and how to use them. It's not like "Do this now: (#*&%@(&%(#@*&% Then do this: [more garbage]" it's just a refrence  |

| As I said, that doesn't work for me. My grey matter doesn't work like that. I learn hands-on. All the mods I did for my AcmlmBoard? Done by "hands-on". I decided what I wanted to do, found the code that would work, copy/pasted it into a new file, and started messing around with it, until it did what I wanted it to. I've tried php.net, and as I said, it doesn't work for me. That's just the kind of person I am. Oh, and as for looking through the tons of code, I don't mind. Sometimes I see something that catches my intrest, and a new project is born from that. Generally, though, I just use the search function of my text editor to find what I'm looking for. |

| yah, actually php.net has some of the best documentation for any programming language i've seen. It has a well rounded and succinct list of all the functions as well as real-world usefull examples. | |||

Originally posted by GavinIndeed, I wish that there was a site like PHP.net for any programming language; where you can input a function what you're looking for and you're taken (or guided, in case you don't know what function you're looking for) to the actual example and tutorial page. I remember getting annoyed at microsoft.com frequently in the past, when I was experimenting with VB 6.0 a lot. It's cluttered like hell and for some reason it never gives me the exact information I'm looking for. |

Not everything works for all people. Just like php.net doesn't work as well for Elric, not-being-an-assclown doesn't work so well for you. Different strokes for different folks. |
