Yes, you send something to another server, not the client. You send stuff
to the client by using things like echo.

Output.

If you send nothing to the client, the client gets nothing. I promise I'm
telling the truth. :-)

It doesn't matter what else you do. You can connect to a thousand
different servers, collect data from a thousand different databases, and
do stuff more complex than any PHP developer has ever done before.
However, if you never output anything, the client is going to see a blank
page.

Hope that helps.
