Re: AW: [PHP] Cache Database-driven site

all you need to do is wrap your pages in: ob_start(); // your code $page = ob_get_contents(); // write $page to a file or whatever you want to do and then depending on if this script is being called by cron or just when people load the page you can either do an ob_end_flush() or ob_end_clean() it's easy. At first I didn't beleive output buffering was that cool, now I thnk it's one of the best things PHP has to offer. You can use it for a lot of things, check it out. -aaron At 12:40 AM +0100 3/13/01, Joe Maier wrote:

Aaron, i would love to believe what you say. But i couldn't find any buffering functions in the online docs. Could you please gimme a pointer on where i can find these functions and what's their name. Are they available in php3?

To create the HTML-cache page i need to build the whole HTML-page content

memory, instead of echoing it back to the user's browser, and finally write it to disk. That means, i have to write all HTML in php-code. I can't just embed php-parts in html tags.

that's not true. see the output buffering functions. -aaron -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
