Someone on this forum recently informed me about the cache limit on the ob_start () function. The standard seems to be 4096 bytes. My problem is: this is not a lot. A standard A4 page of text contains about 4800 bytes. If I use output buffering to cache the results of a database query in order to have the PHP contained in the database entries interpreted server side before writing to the client, then I'm limited to four or five entries in cases where the entries are text entries (e.g. mediumtext or just text).
What to do? I'd hoped to use output buffering to solve the problem of PHP code in database entries not being interpreted. It seems I'll have to use the eval() function whether I like it or not.
Have I misunderstood the problem? Can anyone give me advice?
Thanks
Norman
