Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/language.types.string
---

The Example #3 uses an old style constructor, which is DEPRECATED in PHP 7.0, This should be changed, or at least noted that the old style constructors were DEPRECATED in PHP 7.0.



class foo
{
    var $foo;
    var $bar;

    function foo()
    {
        $this->foo = 'Foo';
        $this->bar = array('Bar1', 'Bar2', 'Bar3');
    }
}

Log: Fix #75104: Example 3 Heredoc string quoting example

Since the manual doesn't apply to PHP 4 anymore, there is no need
to use old-style constructors in general examples.

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.

There is at least one other occurrence of this (PHP 4-style constructors) on the same page.  Would you mind going over the whole page and addressing them?

Thanks, Peter. It seems that there was only one other old-style
constructor (example 7).
