#23679 [Fbk->Opn]: PHP does not protect output buffers created in configs from the script

ID: 23679 User updated by: ngaugler at ngworld dot net Reported By: ngaugler at ngworld dot net -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: I do not want PHP to delete the buffers. Let me try and re-explain it. When I setup the ob_gzhandler, then I run ob_clean or ob_clean_flush PHP will send a partially gzip'ed page to the browser or inconsistant results and the page will not display properly. What I am suggesting is that if someone sets ob_gzhandler in the PHP.ini, or a situation like this, they cannot clear it out through the script. It is protected.

If you configure your php.ini to have output_handler = ob_gzhandler then run ob_clean() or ob_end_clean() odd results happen and the page does not properly send. I think PHP should protect buffers created before the script is executed so that the individual may not destroy them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23679&edit=1
