As you know the NetBeans IDE will pop you inline documentation in your PHP sources based on the phpDocumentor syntax.
What I found out is that when I use special HTML characters in my phpDocumentor documentation they are treated as HTML in NetBeans but as text in the HTMl doc generated by phpDocumentor.
For example:
/**
* Add a new <link> to the <head> of the document.
*/
In the HTML generated by phpDocumentor, will be shown as:
Add a new <link> to the <head> of the document.
But in the NetBeans IDE it will be shown as:
Add a new <link> to the <head> of the document.
Which one is right? What is the correct way to embed special HTML characters in your phpDocumentor comments?
