Hello,

Does anyone know where can I find the documentation source for the PHP functions?

(Something like XML files would be great!)

thanks

I see HTML and "HTML Help" (.chm) options on the documentation download page:

http://us.php.net/download-docs.php

The PHP Documentation HOWTO probably has some insight into the process and if there are any other versions out there:

http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/

Thanks for your answer but I am looking for something more flexible to use it in a custom application I am creating as internal help. My only option right now is to parse the single html files download from php.net

PHP's documentation is written in XML format, using the DocBook DTD. You can access it using their SVN repository:
