[SOLVED] Replace "Echoed" text

[Basdub]

Newbie - Sorry if stupid question.

 

I have a class that produce an html table to display MySql table records.

Added to that, it display a Navigation system (previous next ...).

 

The way the class id built, it echo the html as it produces it.

 

what i would like to modify, is to echo a temporary tag like <Mystuff:nav> somewhere along the way.

then generate the navigation html code and store it in memory.

 

now when the html table is completely echoed, iwould like to replace the <Mystuff:nav> by the navigation html code stored in memory previously.

 

Would that be possible. Oh! Could I replace text in the response buffer which would already contain the echoed html?

 

Any idea

You could catch all the output in the buffer and place it in a string, modify the string however you please and then output that.

 

eg;

 

<?php

  ob_start();
  echo "This is a test";
  $out = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();
  echo str_replace('test','foo',$out)

?>
