       The shutdown functions are called as the part of the request so that 
       it's possible to send the output from them. There is currently no way
       to process the data with output buffering functions in the shutdown
       function.
      </para>
      <para>
       Shutdown functions are called after closing all opened output buffers
       thus, for example, its output will not be compressed if <link
       linkend="ini.zlib.output-compression">zlib.output_compression</link> is
       enabled.

        The shutdown functions are now called as a part of the request.
        In earlier versions under Apache, the registered shutdown functions
        were called after the request has been completed (including sending
        any output buffers), so it was not possible to send output to the
        browser using <function>echo</function> or
        <function>print</function>, or retrieve the contents of any output
        buffers using <function>ob_get_contents</function>.
        Headers were also always already sent.

   <para>
    Typically undefined functions cause fatal errors in PHP, but when the
    <parameter>function</parameter> called with
    <function>register_shutdown_function</function> is undefined, an error
    of level <constant>E_WARNING</constant> is generated instead.  Also,
    for reasons internal to PHP, this error will refer to
    <literal>Unknown</literal> at line #0.
   </para>

  <note>
   <para>
    Working directory of the script can change inside the shutdown function
    under some web servers, e.g. Apache.
