Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-16 16:32:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Try this instead: <?php ob_start('foo');function foo ($buffer) { return var_export($buffer,true); } echo "bar!"; ?> It does exactly same thing in PHP 4.3.x and PHP 5.x.x so Jakub is right here.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-13 11:36:00] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is not a documentation bug, please revert your patch Jakub - this also works fine in PHP 4.3 and should work fine in PHP 5.x. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-05 15:00:49] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. You can't even call functions using the output buffering functions like print_r($expression, true) or highlight_file($filename, true) from a callback function. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-11 07:56:34] clover at fromru dot com Description: ------------ i'm using ob_start() with a callback function; internally in it i use $res=var_export($var, TRUE) function but got an error: [11-Feb-2005 08:28:15] PHP Fatal error: var_export() [<a href='ref.outcontrol'>ref.outcontrol</a>]: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in E:\htdocs\index.php on line XXX Reproduce code: --------------- <?php ob_start("my_shutdown_function"); function my_shutdown_function($buffer){ $var=headers_list(); $res=var_export($var, TRUE); return($res); } print("something..."); ?> Expected result: ---------------- the "dump" of all sent headers instead of string "something..." Actual result: -------------- "PHP Fatal error..." Comment: this error actually must be when i call var_dump() or var_export($var, FALSE) in output buffering handler. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31929&edit=1
