Description
bool
ob_end_clean ( void )
This function discards the contents of the topmost output buffer and
turns off this output buffering. If you want to further
process the buffer's contents you have to call
ob_get_contents() before
ob_end_clean() as the buffer contents are
discarded when ob_end_clean() is called.
The function returns TRUE when it successfully
discarded one buffer and FALSE otherwise. Reasons for failure are first
that you called the function without an active buffer or that for some
reason a buffer could not be deleted (possible for special buffer).
The following example shows an easy way to get rid of all output buffers:
Example 1. ob_end_clean() example
<?php
while (@ob_end_clean());
?>

Note:
If the function fails it generates an E_NOTICE.
The boolean return value was added in PHP 4.2.0.

ob_get_contents(), and
ob_flush().
