The webpage for some of the documentation is too wide to easily read on 800 x 600 monitors. (Please don't tell me to upgrade monitors. That is so MS-like.) One has to scroll right to left to read each line. An example is at:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php

Here, it appears that somebody put a long URL in the comments, which HTML cannot break.

One solution would be to make the comments in a *seperate* HTML table container than the top description part. That way a fat comment table won't "ruin" the description table also.

Appears to have been fixed, I can read the page just fine in 800x600 without any horizontal scroll bars.
