Req #29416 [Wfx]: ob_include function

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29416&edit=1 ID: 29416 User updated by: edwin at cheatah dot nl Reported by: edwin at cheatah dot nl Summary: ob_include function Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *General Issues PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Are you serious? This is what you come up with after 9 years of contemplation? Actually I haven't been a web developer for over 5 years now, so I don't need the feature anymore. But you should be ashamed of yourself. First of all for leaving open a feature request this long, but even more so for not understanding the problem and for your worthless answer. Nice demonstration of incompetence. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-06 08:01:45] yohgaki@php.net $message = ob_include ( './tpl/mail.php' ); You should use $message = file_get_contents(); since it is unrelated to "output". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-28 01:30:30] edwin at cheatah dot nl Description: ------------ I often use something like the following code: ob_start (); include './tpl/mail.php'; $message = ob_get_contents (); ob_end_flush (); I would very much like to see a function of control stucture like this: $message = ob_include ( './tpl/mail.php' ); // or $message = ob_include './tpl/mail.php'; Of course ob_include_once, ob_require and ob_require_once behave similarly. (Creating a custom function in PHP code is NOT possible, for the function's scope would be used.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29416&edit=1
