ob_get_clean — Get current buffer contents and delete current output buffer
Description
ob_get_clean ( ) : string
Gets the current buffer contents and delete current output buffer.
ob_get_clean() essentially executes both ob_get_contents() and ob_end_clean().
The output buffer must be started by ob_start() with PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_CLEANABLE and PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_REMOVABLE flags. Otherwise ob_get_clean() will not work.
Return Values
Returns the contents of the output buffer and end output buffering.
If output buffering isn't active then FALSE
is returned.
Examples
Example #1 A simple ob_get_clean() example
<?phpob_start();echo "Hello World";$out = ob_get_clean();$out = strtolower($out);var_dump($out);?>
The above example will output:
string(11) "hello world"
