weird error while concatenate string

[skoff]

here's my code :

$str = "";
 foreach($arr as $r) {
  $str .= '<option value="'.$r["idField"].'">'.$r["name"].'<option>';
 }
echo $str;

i checked my array and its populated.
i've done this a million time... but there's no echo of it.. the only difference is that i use XAMPP on windows... normally i'm on linux. Is there any settings i need to change so it can work?

Might be output buffering?

Try this:

echo $str;
flush();
if(ob_get_level() > 0) { ob_flush(); }

never thought of it.. i had special characters in some string.. thanks

Just curious... what was the "weird error"? Or was it that it simply didn't work as expected (no error)?
