RE: [PHP] How do I get ini_set('output_handler', '') to work?!

Thank you for the reply Richard (and Tom). That news sucks however. Seems that the PHP pre-parser should handle this better. It's not like it's a one-pass parser (like Ruby). <?php ini_set('output_handler', 'mb_output_handler'); echo "\noutput_handler => " . ini_get('output_handler') . "\n"; ?> I suppose I could re-compile my command line version with a different php.ini file, but that's kind of lame that I have to have two php.ini files for what ini_set() SHOULD handle. What other undocumented "gotchas" are there with ini_set() I wonder...
