  <para>
   This function will send the contents of the output buffer (if any). If you
   want to further process the buffer's contents you have to call
   <function>ob_get_contents</function> before <function>ob_flush</function>
   as the buffer contents are discarded after <function>ob_flush</function>
   is called.
  </para>
  <para>
   This function does not destroy the output buffer like
   <function>ob_end_flush</function> does.
