Bug #15589: include() output order is weird

From: webmaster@rosenkeller.org Operating system: Linux (SuSE 7.0) PHP version: 4.1.1 PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Bug description: include() output order is weird Hi, I've just stumbled across this problem: I have a few pages which all include one file that does some functionality needed for session management. Now I have a problem in one of these pages (the other ones seem to work): the output from the included file is not completely output before the "including" script continues; instead, I have something like this: ### output from include() ### rest of the "including" file ### output from include() (remaining portion). In short, the last thing the included file should output is "</table>". But I get everything until "</", then the output from the including file, then "table>". In "long": I have put the concerned scripts at https://members.rosenkeller.org/phpbug/ The file "logout.php" includes "session.php". The corresponding "logout-src.php" and "session-src.php" simply show the source code of the respective file; I have also included phpinfo.php which shows the results of phpinfo(). If you have a look at the HTML source that output.php produces, you should see what I mean (the "warning: undefined variable" is normal, because there is no session). I think that this is a bug; if I overlooked something instead (maybe some configuration option?) I'd be pleased to hear what it is... Thank you in advance, and keep the great work up! :-) -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15589&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15589&r=submittedtwice
