Doc #53290 [Opn->Bgs]: Doc issue

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53290&edit=1 ID: 53290 Updated by: aharvey@php.net Reported by: oxygenus at gmail dot com Summary: Doc issue -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Documentation Problem Package: *General Issues Operating System: Irrelevant PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N New Comment: The note means exactly what it says: you can't use var_export($var, true) within an ob_start() callback function. You can use it as per normal with output buffering; it only refers to that very specific case. Looks clear enough to me -> closing. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-10 11:35:39] oxygenus at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If used and set to TRUE, var_export() will return the variable representation instead of outputing it. Note: This function uses internal output buffering with this parameter so it can not be used inside an ob_start() callback function. What does that Note: stand for? It already says on the param what it does. If nothing is sent to the output...then who is that note going to help? People passing that param already expect a certain behaviour, and are some trying to stay away from ob_start in the first place. --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.var-export#Parameters --- Test script: --------------- What test script?
