Hi gang, Lets say that you have a function that prints something to the output simply like this: function print_str() { print "blah blah blah"; } I was wondering if there is a way to use this output and store it in a var or something without changing the function itself? And store the "blah blah blah" somewhere for later use? I can think of many reasons that someone could use this.
Perhaps you are looking for what the output buffering functions do? http://us3.php.net/manual/en/book.outcontrol.php Cheers, Mattias
