I need my output buffering. Without it I am but a shell of a programmer.

Help a person in need!

I tried the documentation with no luck, and google didn't turn up anything for me.

I thought up a way to do it, but it seems like half-assing it.

What is it exactly you're trying to do? Could you please go abit more in detail, possible code example and tell what problem you're trying to solve

In php you can do this thing:
I really really like these functions. However, I cannot use them while using smarty, because the entire template runs through without me being able to interfere. Now, I could split up the template files and cut them where I want to use ob_flush(), but It seems half-assed.

As for Smarty, Smart is PHP, so I don't see any reason why you can't inject your own code wherever or however you please, but like Kalle, never used it, so...
