Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
Unlike Apache 1, when Apache 2 recieves a directive to flush it does so
right away sending any pending headers in the process. Since the
headers & text were already sent it cannot send the header indicating
the data that follows in gziped. Due to the missing header you get a
whole bunch of binary data.

Description:
------------
Calling flush in Apache and Apache 2 produce different results.
Within Apache after calling flush you can still send headers as the
output buffer prevents it from actually being flushed.
Within Apache 2 after calling flush you can no longer send headers even
though headers_sent still returns false.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
ob_start();
echo 'test';
flush();
$newtext = ob_get_clean();
if (strpos(' ' . $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING'], 'gzip') !== false
AND !headers_sent())
{
header('Content-Encoding: gzip');
$newtext = gzencode($newtext, 1);
}
header('Content-Length: ' . strlen($newtext));
echo $newtext;
?>
Expected result:
----------------
test
Actual result:
--------------
binary data
