I can get the chunk output by using ob_get_contents(), but after calling ob_start() the output is only buffered and not sent till flushing. The delay from echoing to flushing is exactly what I want to avoid. I want to echo the output imediatly and not just on flushing, but still be able to buffer the chunk and get the output into variable. I hope it's clearer now.. thanks, Lorderon. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
