------------
The type comparison tables are a bit hard to read, a bit of color would improve it a lot.

Here is an example on how to solve this:
CSS:
.true{
	background-color:#cfc;
}

.false{
	background-color:#fcc;
}

HTML:
<table border="1" class="CALSTABLE">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>==</th>
      <th><tt class="constant true"><b>TRUE</b></tt></th>
      <th><tt class="constant false"><b>FALSE</b></tt></th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td><tt class="constant true"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
      <td><tt class="constant true"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
      <td><tt class="constant false"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td><tt class="constant false"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
      <td><tt class="constant false"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
      <td><tt class="constant true"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

I've just noticed that I've made a mistake in my last post, here's the right version:
HTML:
<table border="1" class="CALSTABLE">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>==</th>
      <th><tt class="constant"><b>TRUE</b></tt></th>
      <th><tt class="constant"><b>FALSE</b></tt></th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td><tt class="constant"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
      <td class="true"><tt class="constant"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
      <td class="false"><tt class="constant"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td><tt class="constant"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
      <td class="false"><tt class="constant"><b>FALSE</b></tt></td>
      <td class="true"><tt class="constant"><b>TRUE</b></tt></td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

We don't use colors in PHP manual.
