Yasuo, Implicit flush has nothing to do with the PHP-level output buffering layers. Implicit flush only means that the server-specific flush function should be called whenever output is being written using the server-specific output function. As long as you're not calling the server-specific output function (e.g., if you're using PHP's output buffering layers), implicit flush has no meaning.
In other words - if you have implicit flush on, and turn output buffering on, and print out something - this something will go to the output buffer, and will NOT be flushed. In no way should enabling implicit-flush change the output of an application, it must not interfere with the programmable output buffering layers of PHP. That's the desired behavior, please make sure you did not deviate from it... Thanks, Zeev At 05:48 03/10/2002, Yasuo Ohgaki wrote: >Alan Knowles wrote: >>Yasuo Ohgaki wrote: >>>A little history.
