#46254 [NEW]: confusing description of ob_get_flush

From: mateopl at yahoo dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: confusing description of ob_get_flush Description: ------------ ob_get_flush description does not state that the output will be send to the screen as well as returned. This is very confusing and a time drain. Generally speaking all ob_* functions' documentaion could use some improvements (e.g. docs for 'get' functions never say if the flush is made by PHP or should be done by hand). Having so many functions for buffering functionality, while sometimes good, should be very well documented. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46254&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46254&r=mysqlcfg
