Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Output Control
Operating System: debian linux
PHP Version: 4.3.4
New Comment:
I worded this wrong, I'm sorry,
Dang - I made the whole thing wrong.
It's not the 'flush' one it's ob_end_clean().
EXAMPLE:
test.php
<?
$foo='';
?>
<--- note whitespace here
bar.php
<?
include('test.php');
ob_end_clean();
header("Content-type: application/ms-word");
echo "foobar";
?>
-----------------
'foobar' will have a linebreak *before* it, even though the
ob_end_flush() function has been called.
-----------------
Please reconsider the above issue. ob_end_clean() (this is what's in
the code which was causing us problems after the upgrade) has changed
behaviour.
I've not made myself clear on this, and that's my fault. EVERYTHING
has ob_start() at the top of the controller file, so the example files
*only* have the ob_end_clean() in them when needed. This *should* be
clearing out everything that's been collected in the output buffer up
to that point. Previous versions apparently dealt with the whitespace
in any include()d files as well, but this latest version (4.3.4) is
breaking where earlier versions (4.3.1 and below) worked.
If this behaviour has changed here, what else may have changed as well?

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not

PHP does not trim output.

Description:
------------
ob_end_flush used to completely trim all output that had been
collected, including whitespace at the end of previously included
files. That's not happening after an upgrade to PHP 4.3.4 (from
4.3.1).
EXAMPLE:
test.php
<?
$foo='';
?>
<--- note whitespace here
bar.php
<?
include('test.php');
ob_end_flush();
header("Content-type: application/ms-word");
echo "foobar";
?>
'foobar' will have a linebreak *before* it, even though the
ob_end_flush() function has been called.
