(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5, PHP 7)

ob_cleanClean (erase) the output buffer

Description

ob_clean ( ) : void

This function discards the contents of the output buffer.

This function does not destroy the output buffer like ob_end_clean() does.

The output buffer must be started by ob_start() with PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_CLEANABLE flag. Otherwise ob_clean() will not work.
