RE: [PHP-DEV] Bug #858: sprintf gives "Document Contains No Data" when referenced string is empty

Yes I'm printing lots of other stuff. This is just a snippet. If you prefer: <HTML> <? print(sprintf("%s", "")); ?> </HTML> In the script in which I discovered this, I had lots of other print statements. If I added calls to flush(), then I would get the output, up to the point where sprintf caused the script to crash.
