Since you're the man in charge, then I'll make a simple resolution.
Create a page with two columns.
Column 1 has the mysql item, while column 2 has the corresponding mysqli
item.
Then link column 2 to the new item "manual".
for instance:
mysql_free_result() ---->> mysqli_free_result()
http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-free-result.php
I had a look at the mysql stuff listed in the left column.
As you say, the replacement code is shown.
But I think a list showing the new code as well would be better.
