PHP Warning message

[sensei]

I'm now getting this little tag at the top of my screen when I visit beta:

[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 4409: ob_start() [ref.outcontrol]: output handler 'ob_gzhandler' conflicts with 'zlib output compression'

Could one of the tech-savvy mods look into this little matter and settle this little cyberlanguage squabble?

I've just browsed the forum in Chrome 24, Firefox 17, and IE 9 using both installed skins and I don't see the error message. What OS, browser, and style are you using?

I seen the error message earlier too, but I don't now. I wonder what changed.

Yep - it was there, but now its gone. Who knows!!?!

How strange. I was seeing it on Firefox on my PC and Safari on my iphone. Now it seems to be gone. hmmmmmm
Maybe the board is haunted?

I've just browsed the forum in Chrome 24, Firefox 17, and IE 9 using both installed skins and I don't see the error message. What OS, browser, and style are you using?

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Browser: Windows Internet Explorer 9
Style: prosilver.

Anyhow, I don't see it this morning either so whatever the disagreement was down in the Beta software core must have been resolved over a couple of virtual beers. Still it's an oddity and people might watch out for it.

Browsers shouldn't cause PHP warnings, as PHP is strictly a server-side language. Something was probably off with the server for a little while or somehow the forum's functions.php file got modified. ob_start is php's output buffering function.
