Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/filter.examples.validation
---

all the above documentation is slightly incorrect, the output is not reading the variables in -

code:

$email_a = 'joe@example.com';
$email_b = 'bogus';

if (filter_var($email_a, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
    echo "This ($email_a) email address is considered valid.";
}

output:

This (email_a) email address is considered valid.

should be output:

This (joe@example.com) email address is considered valid.

same for the IP and integer examples.

The description for this bug is slightly off. The IP and integer examples are actually correct.

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.

Kalle,

Your update makes the first example inconsistent with the other examples on the page which all print variable names instead of values.
