From: mak77 at anvi dot it Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 4.3.2RC1 PHP Bug Type: Output Control Bug description: output_buffering problem with IE 6.0
ok so here is my problem my php.ini is set to output_buffering = On output_handler = ob_gzhandler zlib.output_compression = Off ;zlib.output_handler = and i have a script (content management system similar to php-nuke), it's a very big pile of code so i cannot put here it all. hwv... the script has mainly an API that is a class.. the part of interest is class API { var $_OB=true; var $_OB_HANDLER='ob_gzhandler'; function API() { if(ini_get('zlib.output_compression')) $this->_OB_HANDLER=''; if(!ini_get('output_buffering') && $this->_OB) {ob_start($this->_OB_HANDLER);} if(!$this->_OB && ini_get('output_buffering')) {$this->_OB=true;} } ... other code } a page is build as $API->page_start(); //html headers and module initialize //contents here $API->page_end(); the problem is that having output_buffering=on often the browser stay "stuck" waiting for the page (and i have to refresh to get the page), while other times it renders the page immediately. the problem totally disappear if i set output_buffering=off in the php.ini file (i can do this on my pc but not on provider's server!) so i've tried to put this code in $API->page_end (the last function called) if($this->_OB) { //$page=ob_get_contents(); $page=ob_get_contents(); $fp=fopen("debug.txt","w"); fwrite($fp,var_export(ob_get_status(true),true)."\n\n".$page); fclose($fp); ob_end_flush(); } the scripts reach the end (a debug.txt file is created correctly) but the page is not always displayed (1 time works correctly, 1 time the browser wait for something and do nothing) the debug.txt file contains: array ( 0 => array ( 'chunk_size' => 0, 'size' => 61440, 'block_size' => 10240, 'type' => 1, 'status' => 0, 'name' => 'ob_gzhandler', 'del' => true, ), ) <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" /> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="IT" lang="IT" dir="ltr"> <head> ... and so on Browser is IE 6.0 sp1, works correctly with mozilla 1.2, so is probably some header's problem. Same problem with phpMyAdmin 2.4.0 server is IIS 5.1, php installed as an isapi filter waiting for some help if possible, i'll try to create a little script to reproduce the problem... -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23023&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23023&r=gnused
