Hi,
this is just to add a behavior that I haven't understud at first place.

ob_get_flush actually returns the content of the buffer as a text but also it sends the buffer back to the browser so that it's displayed on user screen.

Use ob_get_clean if you do not want the buffer to be send to the user

Correction to previous post: ob_get_clean() is better, ie:

<?php
// start generating html
$html = '<html><head>'; // etc
// start output buffering
ob_start();
// call function which outputs immediately
print_menu();
// append this to $html and empty buffer
$html .= ob_get_clean();
?>

I found this function is useful for storing output instead of displaying it. For example, I wanted to use an old function which echoed the ouput but I wanted it in a variable, not outputted immediately. Here's how:

<?php
// start generating html
$html = '<html><head>'; // etc
// start output buffering
ob_start();
// call function which outputs immediately
print_menu();
// append this to $html
$html .= ob_get_flush();
// empty output buffer
ob_clean();
?>

I don't know how exactly this works, but if you call this function, PHP would behave as if headers have been sent (even though the output has gone to a string).

This means that you can't call this function, and then call setcookie for example.

This was verified by trial and error
