note 91963 added to function.ob-start

Make sure the editor you use does not add the UTF8/UTF16 BOM at the start of the scripts if you want to use ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); If those three characters are present, browsers like Firefox won't be able to decode the pages and will report: Content Encoding Error The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression. The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression. Google Chrome will simply report "Error 2 (net::ERR_FAILED): Unknown error." With the ob_start command commented out, the page is successfully load and the browser will usually detect the BOM and not show it on the page, so everything's hard to debug. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 85.186.3.205 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-start.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/91963 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91963 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/91963 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
