PHP version: Irrelevant
PHP Bug Type: Output Control
Bug description: Output is retained and is not sent immediately to client
Description:
------------
To illustrate the problem, I'll write a script that sends two JavaScript
blocks that capture the client's current date.
I have written this code with and without buffer control, and the result
is the same.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<script>
var init_date = new Date();
</script>
<?
//Waiting 5 seconds to send the next JavaScript block...
sleep(5);
?>
<script>
var end_date = new Date();
alert("Init Date: " + init_date + "\nEnd Date: " + end_date);
</script>
Expected result:
----------------
The two dates should not be the same, because the first block would be
sent immediately, and the 2nd one 5 seconds later.
Actual result:
--------------
The two dates are the same. I have not experienced this problem with other
languages such as ASP and Perl.
