Hi, I think this is not really a bug, but actually a case poor and misleading interface design. You can create a project from existing source files located in a subfolder of htdocs (or www or other, depending on the server you are using) this way:
1. Start Eclipse and select htdocs (or www or other) as workspace.
2. Select File -> New --> Project --> PHP Project
3. Type the name of the folder that contains the source files into the Project Name field.
(Note I have not tried this with folders that are hidden deep within the folder hierarchy)
4. Choose "Create new project in workspace".
Do not choose "Create project at existing location (from existing source".
The following text is displayed: "The specified external location already exists.If a project is created in this location, the wizard will automatically try to detect existing sources and configure the buildpath appropriately."
5. Click Finish.
The project should now have been created with your source files inside. I am not sure why the "Create project at existing location (from existing source" does not do this, but that is the way it works as of today.
