Description:
------------
There is a note on the mysqli extension requirements page that is unclear and does not coincide with the documentation on the MySQL documentation found at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/apis-php-mysqli.setup.html#apis-php-mysqli.requirements

Particularly the reference to 5.0.7 or newer.  The documentation is unclear and even confusing on the PHP site.

Reproduce code:
---------------
---
From manual page: mysqli.requirements
---

located at:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.requirements.php

Note: The mysqli extension is designed to work with MySQL version 4.1.13 or newer, or 5.0.7 or newer. For previous versions, please see the MySQL extension documentation. 

Expected result:
----------------
Note: The mysqli extension is designed to work with the version 4.1.3 or above of MySQL. For previous versions, please see the MySQL extension documentation.

The information in the PHP source docs is correct. The problem appears 
to be that the PHP source code has not synched over to the MySQL site 
correctly. I will look into it.

Yes, we have a problem with our synchronization software (PHP CVS -> 
MySQL website). We will fix as soon as possible. Thanks.

The synchronization process has now been fixed. The PHP and MySQL site 
now display the same information.
