ob_get_clean();

The code attached below works. An html email message is sent in the function called display_email(); using this code:
ob_start();
display_email();
$msg .= ob_get_clean();

I have constructed the actual message in a function as the email contained quite a bit of dynamic informaion and it seemed to be the only way I could get the email to send its content.

My question relates to an errror I recieve in de bug mode that states that the variable $msg is undefined. My code works, everying seems to function just fine hower I would preref to figure out what the undefined $msg variabke is all about. Especially as the $msg is there when it pop out as an email message.
Thanks,

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
				$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
				$headers .= "Reply-To: ".$_POST['fp']['Contact Email Address'][0]." \r\n";
				$headers .= "From: ".$_POST['fp']['Contact Email Address'][0]."\r\n";
				
           // Send
                $subject = $_POST['subject'];
           		$to      = "someemail@somedoman.com" ;
			
		
ob_start(); 
display_responce($_POST['heading'], $_POST['subject'], $_POST['fp'], $_POST['sf']);
$msg .= ob_get_clean(); 
 
        mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);

Thanks Dave an Ray, between you, you have solved and answered my question thoroughly. I am pleased to resolve the $msg .= ob_get_clean(); issue as its the only way I have found to send an email containing code other than simple echoed strings.
Cheers,
