From: clewis at myfonts dot com Operating system: Windows XP, CentOS 4 PHP version: 5.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Output Control Bug description: system() forces Content-type header output
Description: ------------ Calling the system() function forces the standard Content-type: text/html header output, even when output buffering is on. This behaviour is unlike other output commands such as print, which suppress the "automatic" headers until the output buffer is flushed. Note that replacing system() with print() in the sample code works as expected. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php ob_start(); chdir("/"); system("ls"); ob_end_clean(); header("Content-type: text/plain"); print "Hello World."; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Content-type: text/plain Hello World. Actual result: -------------- Content-type: text/html Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent...
