#23228 [NEW]: output function

From: prof_moriarty at veryfast dot biz Operating system: Win 98 PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: output function A feature request. I've been reading through the manual for 4.3.something, and i can't find a function to do this, so i figured i'd suggest it. Basically a function that will determine if any data has actually been sent to the browser, and return TRUE or FALSE depending on the result. This function would check to see if ANY data had been sent to the browser (cookies and headers excluded), including error messages! I realise there are the "output control functions", however in the case i have, they don't really help me. Partially because i'm not sure if errors are actually buffered or sent straight through ignoring them. Also there is the $php_errormsg variable, but that's only related to the 'track errors' configuration which defaults to off (meaning it's never going to be on on a host).
