Use JCommenter.vim for php-scripts:

jcommenter.vim : A script for automatically generating JavaDoc comments

PHPdoc is an imitation of JAVAdoc. The syntax between the two languages is very close, see the examples below:

Example 1Edit

A PHP function.

function serialize_it($something) {
  $person = serialize($something);
  return $person;
}

Put the cursor on the first line and type :call JCommentWriter()<CR>

You get:

/**
 *
 *
 * @param $something
 * @return
 */
function serialize_it($something) {
  $personen = serialize($something);
  return $personen;
}

Example 2Edit

A PHP class.

class submenu {
 ...
}

Put the cursor on the first line and type :call JCommentWriter()<CR>

You get:

/**
 *
 *
 * @author
 * @version
 */
class submenu {
 ...
}

Example 3Edit

For a class-variable you get:

/**
 *
 */
var $urls;

NoteEdit

It does not work if you have = like in

function serialize_it($something = ) {}

But I think jscript.vim can be adapted for the use with PHP.
