Description:
------------
I'm teaching PHP and we do many things with DOM.

When my students try to get the documentation for
"getElementsByTagName" at http://php.net they get
the PHP4 documentation for
"get_elements_by_tagname".

The php.net search does not know "getElementsByTagName".

My students are not stupid and I told them already how to dearch for DOM PHP5 methods - but they still don't find it.

I already reported this documention bug some years ago but it was marked as "not a bug".

The javascript syntax is nearly the same and I can direct my students to selfhtml but makes not much sense.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://de.php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=getElementsByTagName&lang=en

Expected result:
----------------
http://de.php.net/manual/en/domdocument.getelementsbytagname.php

Actual result:
--------------
http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.domelement-get-elements-by-tagname.php

Interesting that it doesn't show up there in the search.

However. You can use php.net/classname.methodname
http://php.net/domelement.getelementsbytagname for example works fine

It should be closed. It works now.
