Description:
------------
I often use something like the following code:

ob_start ();
include './tpl/mail.php';
$message = ob_get_contents ();
ob_end_flush ();

I would very much like to see a function of control stucture like this:
$message = ob_include ( './tpl/mail.php' );
// or
$message = ob_include './tpl/mail.php';

Of course ob_include_once, ob_require and ob_require_once behave similarly.

(Creating a custom function in PHP code is NOT possible, for the function's scope would be used.)

$message = ob_include ( './tpl/mail.php' );

You should use

$message = file_get_contents();

since it is unrelated to "output".

Are you serious? This is what you come up with after 9 years of contemplation?
Actually I haven't been a web developer for over 5 years now, so I don't need the feature anymore. But you should be ashamed of yourself. First of all for leaving open a feature request this long, but even more so for not understanding the problem and for your worthless answer. Nice demonstration of incompetence.
