[snip] Output buffering is doing nothing for you in the given example. It does not reduce client side resources... if anything it increases the usage serverside resources. Perhaps you are thinking of gz compression? You might use a combination of ob* functions and gz* functions to minimize bandwidth requirments.. but there's no guarantee that your user's browsers supports it. [/snip] Fatal error: Call to undefined function: gzcompress() in /var/lib/apache/htdocs/swbcabs/gen.php on line 89 I guess that this means I am out of luck here. Anyone know a cleaner method for delivering spreadsheets? Thanks! Jay
