I'm sorry that the new output control layer causes you such headaches. IIRC, 6 years back, when I implemented the new output control functionality, I kindly asked the list, whether to rather implement what's documented, or what the old code did, but I have yet been unable to find according mails. It pretty well may have been the case that the old code passed the output buffer contents through the handler prior discarding, but as it had not been documented (and I obviously failed to figure out a use case) I apparently implemented the more efficient way it currently is. No offense, no excuse, just a try to figure out what happened... -- Regards, Mike
