Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Trouble getting phpwiki running on Redhat 8.0

[Preston L. B. <pre...@co...>]

OK - narrowed this down.  The culprit is in Request.php:

    function compress_output() {
        if (function_exists('ob_gzhandler')) {
            //print "<p>FILE " . __FILE__. " LINE " . __LINE__ . "</p>";
            ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
            $this->_is_compressing_output = true;
        }
    }

The "print" statement is mine.  Uncomment the "print" statement and the 
page renders OK.  Comment out the "print" statement and the page renders 
as gibberish.

Apparently compressing the output is causing ... some sort of problem.
