Description:
------------
A few small typos that I happened to notice. Filenames from the HTML version are given as locators (http://www.php.net/manual/en/***)

migration5.oop.php
------------------
"....or pass as a parameter to a method."
"pass" should be "passed"


migration5.functions.php
------------------------
"iconv_strrpos() - Finds the last occurrence of a needle within the specified range of haystack"
Should this contain the phrase "range of"? It also appears on the main iconv_strrpos() page, but doesn't seem to relate to anything (except the charset?). iconv_strpos() doesn't mention ranges. Nor does strrpos().

"time_nanosleep() - Delay for a number of seconds and nano seconds"
"nano seconds" should be "nanoseconds".

"curl_copy_handle() - Copy a cURL handle along with all of it's preferences"
"it's preferences" should be "its preferences".

"imagefilter() - Applies Filter an image using a custom angle"
The closest interpretation of this would seem to be "Applies a filter to an image using custom arguments". All the imagefilter() page says is "Applies a filter to an image".

"setrawcookie() - Send a cookie with no url encoding of the value"
"url" should be "URL"; or (to be consistent with an earlier appearance in the page of the term) "URL-encoding".


idate.php
---------
"Note:  As idate() returns always an integer and as they can't start with a "0", idate() may return less digits then you would expect. See the example below:"
Two (arguably three) grammatical errors:
- "less" should be "fewer";
- "then" should be "than";
- "returns always" should probably be "always returns".


about.howtohelp.php
-------------------
"Note: .... Instead, one of the many support options"
Instead, one" should be "Instead, use one" and "options" should be followed by a full stop.

Reproduce code:
---------------
This isn't a code-related bug :)

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.
