RE: [PHP] Output Buffering and zlib Compression Issue

Right! With zlib compression ob_start() or similar seems to get called before the user script execution. I'm not quite sure why. Anyhow ob_get_level() returns 2 after the ob_start() is called for the first time in the script. You can avoid the error with while (ob_get_level() > 1) { ob_end_clean(); } but it won't kill the buffer containing output before ob_start() is called. ob_end_clean(); ob_end_clean(); will reproduce your error, too. This leads to the assumption, that it is an issue of advancing the functions internal process pointer. Same reason why $data1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultid); $data2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultid); won't lead to the desired effect either, but While($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultid)){...} does, as does while (@ob_end_clean()); It seems only this way of accessing the buffers allows deleting the lowermost buffer created before Script execution.
