[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] Code Assist not working for PHP language functions

Hi

I have "Eclipse for PHP Developers Build id: 20090619-0625" with Aptana plugin.

Code Assist not working forme for  PHP built in language functions like strstr, ereg_replace etc. is not working for me on Ctrl+Space.

what I mean:
when I type , for example,  "strstr" in a php file, in php perspective and click Ctrl+space , I expect a dropdown suggestion box with options like "strstr", "strpos" etc. to appear with syntax like:
strstr  ( string $haystack  , mixed $needle  [, bool $ strin_needle = false  ] )

this doesn't happen.
instead I get a red text message "No completions available" at the status bar.

However if I type "e" and hit Crtl+Space I get a drop down with "ec"  I get a drop down of 2 options: "echo" and "eco - echoro string".

also if I type "strstr" and highlight it , right click it and choose "Open PHP manual" from the context menu or hit Shift+f2 - nothing happens.
in Prefences -> "PHP"->"PHP manual" I have 1 listing:
Site Name="PHP URL=http://www.php.net/manual/en/, file Extension= php

if however I create a class with methods, and then create a new instance of the class and start typing the name of the method - I do get a suggestion box of the method that can complete that function with properties and everything - so this part does work.
