PHP Editor Review - Php Manual Functioncredits

Description

bool phpcredits ( [int flag] )

This function prints out the credits listing the PHP developers, modules, etc. It generates the appropriate HTML codes to insert the information in a page. flag is optional, and it defaults to CREDITS_ALL. To generate a custom credits page, you may want to use the flag parameter. For example to print the general credits, you will use somewhere in your code:


<?php
phpcredits(CREDITS_GENERAL);
?>

And if you want to print the core developers and the documentation group, in a page of its own, you will use:


<?php
phpcredits(CREDITS_GROUP + CREDITS_DOCS + CREDITS_FULLPAGE);
?>

And if you feel like embedding all the credits in your page, then code like the one below will do it:


<html>
 <head>
  <title>My credits page</title>
 </head>
 <body>
<?php
// some code of your own
phpcredits(CREDITS_ALL - CREDITS_FULLPAGE);
// some more code
?>
 </body>
</html>
