The Zend Component directives are displayed on the Administration | Components page, and also include daemon directives.
The PHP extension directives are displayed on the PHP | Extensions page, and are grouped according to the PHP extension they are associated with. Unassociated directives are grouped into additional directive groupsadditional directive groups.
Some PHP extensions do not have configuration directives. If you select such extension , a "No directives are available for this extension" message is displayed.
