Right, but if you allow me I ask you to reconsider because of simple reason: when the scripts enables buffering, all errors and warnings will never show and the users will get the browser with messages like "Document contains no data" which indeed mean that the script exited during buffering and an error was outputted but it was buffered so it never showed and so the programmer remained clueless. This means that you should expect an excess of needless mailing list messages with programmers asking for help because they can´t figure what´s the error. I don´t think this is any good to anybody. If I may suggest something to avoid this very likely situation, it would be great if you provided buffering or logging of PHP errors and warnings messages may be with separate API. What do you think?
