Description:
------------
http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.file.php

says:

"Identical to readfile(), except that file() returns the file in an array."

implies that readfile() returns the file in another format, whereas it actually outputs the file.

it should actually be "file_get_contents()" that is "identical" to it.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
