I believe you aren't receiving the output because of your use of ob_start(). You either have to remove this, which it isn't really needed here, or you have to dump the contents of the buffer to the browser using ob_end_flush [us2.php.net].
If I were you, though, I would just remove it.
Simply call session_write_close(); before setting the redirect header.
session_write_close();
header("Location: test.php");
Thanks
