Description:
------------
PHP has a number of inbuilt classes like DateTime, but I can't find anywhere where they are fully documented. There is plenty of detail on functions, but nothing on the classes.

The documentation refers to both the procedural and OOP methods on 
the same page.

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date-create.php

I agree with Richard, but also feel we should better document the existence of the DateTime class.

Perhaps we should do something like mysqli docs do for the date classes?

The documentation was enhanced some time ago.  Take a look at http://us2.php.net/manual/en/book.datetime.php.  Reopen the bug if you think it still needs fixing.
