Re: Generating a Static HTML Page from PHP

Is there a PHP function or some way to cause the HTML output from a PHP page to be sent directly to a file instead of the client (browser)? What I would like to do is use a PHP CLI and invoke this PHP script to generate a HTML page that can be served statically by the web server. I have thought about using something like JPCache but this will not do all the things I need.

You could use: <?PHP ob_start();

        //the entire script
        // including HTML bits
        // or
        //include('whateverfile.php');

$contents=ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); //now save $contents to file ?>
