PHP Manual for

ob_get_clean

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0)

ob_get_clean -- Get current buffer contents and delete current output buffer

Description

string ob_get_clean ( void )

This will return the contents of the output buffer and end output buffering. If output buffering isn't active then FALSE is returned. ob_get_clean() essentially executes both ob_get_contents() and ob_end_clean().

Example 1. A simple ob_get_clean() example


<?php

ob_start();

echo "Hello World";

$out = ob_get_clean();
$out = strtolower($out);

var_dump($out);
?>

Our example will output:

string(11) "hello world"
