Subject: Re: Assistance using php_start_ob_buffer
From: spamthis@dslextreme.com (Eric Len)

Okay after looking at the php source looks like the problem is in 
php_request_shutdown where it flushes all the buffers.

So I'm trying from my extension to register a shutdown function to be 
called prior to that(only alternative I see other than mucking the php 
source).

I've figured out basic calling for the

zif_register_shutdown_function

but I'm stuck on how to put something on the

argument_stack

so that it can pass

zend_get_parameters_array

which is called in z

if_register_shutdown_function.

any help appreciated

thanks
Eric
