Is there a simple way to detect in PHP if output_buffering is enabled in php.ini? I’d like to be able to display a message if it is not enabled.
Within my application I tried using an htaccess file to automatically enable it but it seems it does not work in all server environments and in some cases it gives a nasty error.
Thank you very much!

You can check any INI setting in PHP with the ini_get
method. http://php.net/ini_get
ini_get('output_buffering');
Likewise, you can change most INI settings with ini_set
:
ini_set('output_buffering', 'on');
