jhodgdonThis relates to a Handbook page, not doc on api.drupal.org, so it was in the wrong queue.
Comment #4
arianek commentedchanged the handbook page status to "needs updating" - unassigning from @webchick.

arianek commentedwebchick and i reviewed this - she said "so completely wrong it's not funny" and we decided to unpublish the page.
Comment #6
webchickYeah, for clarification. I wrote that page initially when CivicSpace had contracted me to write FAPI docs once FAPI was added to Drupal 4.7. Only problem was, I didn't know FAPI, and all the people who did know FAPI were busy converting Drupal core to use FAPI. ;P
So I did my best with conversations overheard in IRC and promiscuous use of print_r(), but obviously I either majorly misunderstood this piece of it, or it changed sometime in the 4.7 release cycle.
The page is unsalvageable IMO and someone who wants a real FAPI FAQ should just start from scratch.
