BerntB, two things.

First, please use []'s to link to other parts of the site. e.g., How do I keep my own module/library directory?, rather than trying to explicitly link via an <a href=...>. Or, if you used square brackets (which is unlikely given the page source), just link to the title - don't put in the http. Let PM do the work. Otherwise, many of us will end up not logged in to PM anymore.

Second, that page explicitly says that this is out of date - get up-to-date documentation from ... so I'm not sure where the problem is? Just don't use the PM documentation - keeping that up to date seems to be a difficult endeavour, so PM has long said we aren't going to bother.
