# ob_get_clean

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

ob_get_clean -- Get current buffer contents and delete current output buffer

## Description

string ob_get_clean ( void )

This will return the contents of the output buffer and end output buffering. If output buffering isn't active then `FALSE` is returned. ob_get_clean() essentially executes both ob_get_contents() and ob_end_clean().

Пример 1. A simple ob_get_clean() example

`<?php
ob_start();
echo "Hello World";
$out = ob_get_clean();
$out = strtolower($out);
var_dump($out);
?>`

Our example will output:

    string(11) "hello world"

See also ob_start() and ob_get_contents().

`Notice that the function beneath does not catch errors, so throw in an @ before those ob_* calls`

`Running PHP4 < 4.3.0, you can simply add the following to use the function anyway:
<?php
if (!function_exists("ob_get_clean")) {
function ob_get_clean() {
$ob_contents = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $ob_contents;
}
}
?>`
