ini_get('memory_limit') returns empty string (Not FALSE or so).

I understand that it may not be possable to set 'memory_limit' but at least it should be possable to read it. 

I would like to use it, to set a buffer size in % to the available memory.

Also 
  ini_get('any value that is not in php.ini')
returns an empty string too. I would have expected FALSE.

I'v managed to get the value with 
  get_cfg_var('memory_limit')

So it is more a documentation issu. :o)

I'v added a "User Contributed Notes" to ini_get()

Fixed in CVS (the documentation CVS)
