ID: 8282 Updated by: david Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Assigned To: Comments: so why don't you have your own function quiet_eval($code) { ob_start(); eval($code); $retval = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); return $retval; } as I understand it, zend output buffers can be nested, so no issues with it interfering with existing buffers. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-12-15 14:50:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I guess this is more of a hack than anything, but I really needed eval()'s code NOT to be displayed right away. So I used ob_start(), ob_get_contents(), and ob_end_clean(). <?php $stuff = "Hello, "; ob_start(); // start buffer eval("print 'World!';"); // execute code $retval = ob_get_contents(); // return executed code ob_end_clean(); // delete the buffer print $stuff.$retval; ?> This would print "Hello, World!" instead of "World!Hello, ". Is there a function to do this already?
