To generate your own version of the glossary, you need to download the PHP source documentation from php.net. You also need to download the XSL style sheet I created from here and copy it into the source directory of the php documentation. Once you have everything, in a Terminal window, navigate to the source directory and run to generate manual.xml (the main xml file for the php documentation). Then, run the following line and when it's finished, you should see a new folder called PHP_Glossary.php in the same folder as your source files:

From where exactly can we download the "source documentation"? There's a lot of download links on the documentation page (http://www.php.net/docs.php), but no mention of XML there.

Is the thing we have to download the Documentation framework (http://us4.php.net/manual/howto/chapter-framework.html)? If so, I haven't found a convenient download of those items either.

Could you post a link that leads directly to the documentation we need to download for use with 'bbedit_php_glossary.xsl'?

You download the source documentation via CVS. Here are instructions for how to doanload the source documentation: http://www.php.net/manual/howto/cvs-login.html

Since you need to download the source code, it is also helpful to have instructions on how to do it anonymously:

http://www.php.net/anoncvs.php

Then, once you are logged in to the CVS server, here are the instructions for downloading the documentation source code:

http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/cvs-login.php

Remember that where it says "username" on the cvs-login.php page, use "cvsread" as described on the anoncvs.php page.
