The DNS entries are the same for both zoo-project.org and www.zoo-project.org. Maybe you'll have to clean the dns cache on yoru local machine. To do this, please use the following command depending on which platform you use.

 * MacOSX :  dscacheutil -flushcache
 * WIN32 : ipconfig /flushdns
 * GNU/Linux : /etc/init.d/nscd restart

You should be able to link subpages using the following URLs :

http://www.zoo-project.org/index.php?left=[WIKI_PAGE]#YourTitleToPointOn

For instance, to link the "Test your ZOO installation from the ZooWebSite/ZooKernel/InstallationNew trac wiki page, you can use the following syntaxe :

http://www.zoo-project.org/index.php?left=ZooWebSite/ZooKernel/InstallationNew&#TestyourZOOinstallation

We use a specific cache system using Trac wiki pages parsed using xsl to extract relevant content and display them in the left section of the official web site. By now, only few users are allowed to edit ZooWebSite/* wiki pages as those pages are displayed from the offcial web site. All of this can evolve (and have to I think to make things easier to manage) and have  to be documented in a specific wiki section where only authorized peoples can access as it's specific to the official web site gesture.

Nevertheless, feel free to add content to the Trac wiki system, as wiki can be accessed (read) without restriction (except for some private wiki sections where PSC can exchange freely, another time all this have to be documented soon).

The autoconf call have ot be added to the documentation. About the PHP Support there is some specific requirements during the compilation of PHP itself. You can't use directly your local PHP installation (cli or cgi version) but should install another PHP library, the embedded version. You can consult this page to get more information abuot how to compile PHP embedded : http://www.zoo-project.org/trac/wiki/ZooKernel/Embed/PHP#ConfigureandInstallPHPEmbedlibrary (you noted that the syntaxe to point subpages are the same than before except beter syntax than in the web site, we should use a rewrite rules to easier links to subpages)

Sure it can be really great to get distro-specific documentation of compilation / installation / use procedure.
