does PHPDoc parse database accesses?

Choosing a documentation generator, and this is becoming a sticking-point.

We want to have a way to map the relations between database tables and web pages.

Is this a realistic goal, or a moot point? My guess is that good design should make this inconsequential, but does PHPDoc (or another system) parse the code to that level?

I don't know of any documentation system that would do this automatically for you although you could add the details in you description. However, PHPDoc will break the code down to the class and method level and there is not necessarily a direct correlation between that and the web page. So as you suggest the value of documenting tables to web pages is, I would suggest, of limited value.
