Hi,
Thanks for checking this out.
The error is that when I use ob_start to store the results of an include file my fwrite statement later on in the code works but only writes a blank file, whereas when the ob_start is not present the fwrite function writes the file with all the content present in it.
Anyone out there smarter than me about this stuff (not hard) please let me know how to solve this. Thanks.
