<para>
|
|
Flushes the output buffers of PHP and whatever backend PHP is using (CGI,
|
|
a web server, etc). This effectively tries to push all the output so far
|
|
to the user's browser.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<function>flush</function> has no effect on the buffering scheme of your
|
|
web server or the browser on the client side.
|
|
Thus you need to call both <function>ob_flush</function> and
|
|
<function>flush</function> to flush the output buffers.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Several servers, especially on Win32, will still buffer the output from
|
|
your script until it terminates before transmitting the results to the
|
|
browser.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Server modules for Apache like mod_gzip may do buffering of their own that
|
|
will cause <function>flush</function> to not result in data being sent
|
|
immediately to the client.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Even the browser may buffer its input before displaying it. Netscape, for
|
|
example, buffers text until it receives an end-of-line or the beginning of
|
|
a tag, and it won't render tables until the </table> tag of the
|
|
outermost table is seen.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Some versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer will only start to display
|
|
the page after they have received 256 bytes of output, so you may need to
|
|
send extra whitespace before flushing to get those browsers to display the
|
|
page.
