phpDocumentor
phpDocumentor, sometimes referred to as phpdoc or phpdocu, is
the current standard auto-documentation tool for the PHP
language.
Similar to Javadoc,
phpDocumentor can be used from
the command line or a web interface to create professional
documentation from PHP
source code.
phpDocumentor has support for linking between documentation,
incorporating user level documents like tutorials and creation of
highlighted source code with cross referencing to PHP
general
documentation. It supports all Javadoc
tags, including inline
links, and also supports PHPdoc documentation in PEAR style.
