A must for a serious PHP developer; a bar for documenting PHP functions. You can set it display results either in widget or in a new web page. Also click on the PHP icon to set it to it's thumbnail form.
Version 1.2 is a very big update to phpManual. Features listed on my blog.
Version 1.21 makes the widget remember it's skin setting. Also fixes the problem on styling the text input field.
This widget has had a broken link but it seems to be fixed now
I vote this widget to be "dead".

Sometimes you lose the control of the output port, you can't use the scroll bar or click an internal link... research it and it should work.
Also some internal links don't work.
But it will be soon
EDIT: Perhaps even tomorrow, at wednesday.

Alternate skin - DONE
Used johnnysaucepn's icon generator to make new control icons
Search - A link is given to the search page in the window
More nice features:
Added some nice up->down and down->up sliding of the viewport using the Opera Animation Library. Also the background is thrown away and the minimize link is now inside the viewport.
Added a name 'banner' between the search and the other controls
Added internal function links (at last

1. (form elements not inline) This is hard as the widget relys on a table which has a tbody element not shown in it's 'normal' state. As it's maximized the table is expanded. If I made them inline the viewport element would push the icons so left they wouldn't be reachable. Looks like a mistake in the colspans. -DONE (fixed with relative values)
2. (text input bg) This I think I'll fix as it is just changing one CSS file. -DONE
3. (buttons) I spent some time on those buttons but if they are making it too long perhaps I should replace them. -DONE
4. (logo) OK I'll use that image. I had no idea of the logo being so big! -DONE
5. (capturing) Perhaps I should use the Screen Ruler for this case. -DONE
6. (viewport) Yeah I really should use padding and borders for this one, you're right. It is again just changing one CSS file. -DONE
7. (minimize button) I thought if the minimize button would be below it would be easy to find. This I need to consider. -CHANGED (it's now a button next to the search button)
8. (buttons to the top right corner) This one I'll definately do as this widget was originally made for the style guide 'ch

First up, the form elements are all out of line when it first appears (WinXP / Opera 9.02):

Second, the input element background is black text on a dark purple background, which makes it quite hard to read, especially if one has bad eyesight. This should be changed to a lighter background colour, like the search input field on the actual php.net site.
Next, to conserve horizontal space, you should really be using thinner close and options buttons. The circular ones offered by Opera on the templates page would be ideal, IMHO.
The PHP logo is definitely not compressed very well. It is all pixelated, as it if were compressed in a 256 colour-space. I quickly made a replacement image for you which is a 24bit PNG resized to 34 pixels high, the same height as the logo in your widget:

Finally, when you actually open a page, the viewport does not fill all the horizontal space, making the widget look lopsided:

I've also been thinking about a preloading script but it doesn't seem to work. Perhaps I should convert the SVG files into PNGs with Batik/Squiggle and try it out then.
It's almost ready, I just need to the SVG/PNG comparasion and version checking and maybe a warning-like alert if the Internet connection isn't on, I've got a very nice way for that.
