Is it worth adding a note to the output control page http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.outcontrol.php and/or ob_start to say "Note: When upgrading from PHP 4.1 (& 4.2) to 4.3 that due to a bug in earlier versions you must ensure that implict_flush is OFF in your php.ini, otherwise any output withing ob_start, will be not be hidden from output" or something similar? (at least it will be documented, even if nobody reads it :) Regards Alan > > > -- > Yasuo Ohgaki > > -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
