<p class="para">
There is no function named <b>main()</b> except
in the PHP source. In PHP 4.3.0, a new type of error handling
in the PHP source (php_error_docref) was introduced. One feature
is to provide links to a manual page in PHP error messages when
the PHP directives <a href="errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.html-errors" class="link">html_errors</a>
(on by default) and <a href="errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.docref-root" class="link">docref_root</a>
(on by default until PHP 4.3.2) are set.
</p>
<p class="para">
Sometimes error messages refer to a manual page for the function
<b>main()</b> which is why this page exists. If you
discover such a reference, please
<a href="http://bugs.php.net/" class="link external">» file a bug report</a>, indicating
the PHP function caused the error that linked to <b>main()</b>
and it will be fixed and properly documented.
