Hi,
this is just to add a behavior that I haven't understud at first place.
ob_get_flush actually returns the content of the buffer as a text but also it sends the buffer back to the browser so that it's displayed on user screen.
Use ob_get_clean if you do not want the buffer to be send to the userI don't know how exactly this works, but if you call this function, PHP would behave as if headers have been sent (even though the output has gone to a string).
This means that you can't call this function, and then call setcookie for example.
This was verified by trial and errorCorrection to previous post: ob_get_clean() is better, ie:
<?php
// start generating html
$html = '<html><head>'; // etc
// start output buffering
ob_start();
// call function which outputs immediately
print_menu();
// append this to $html and empty buffer
$html .= ob_get_clean();
?>
