Meaning, you are missing an echo of the captured buffer, like: $output = explode("\n", ob_get_clean()); if ($output[0] && preg_match('%^#!\/%', $output[0])) unset($output[0]); echo join("\n", $output); // You need to echo this, since you lost your buffer by doing ob_get_clean Regards, Rob Andrés Robinet | Lead Developer | BESTPLACE CORPORATION  5100 Bayview Drive 206, Royal Lauderdale Landings, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308 | TEL 954-607-4207 | FAX 954-337-2695 | Email: info@bestplace.net  | MSN Chat: best@bestplace.net  |  SKYPE: bestplace |  Web: bestplace.biz  | Web: seo-diy.com
