Description:
------------
Problem in the documentation for array_keys http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.array-keys.php

The phrase "As of PHP 5, this parameter is for if strict comparision (===) should be used." should be rewritten.  I have not checked the code but suspect the meaning is "As of PHP 5, if this parameter is specified as TRUE then comparison should be done with the "===" operator."  But without checking the code I do not know whether "comparison should be done" is not as correct as "comparison must be done".

Perhaps the intended meaning is "As of PHP 5, if this parameter is TRUE then strict comparison ("===") will be used when comparing the search parameter with the key values."

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.

"As of PHP 5, this parameter determines if strict comparision (===) should be used during the search."
