Help please: CURL lib appends '0' (zero) to all output

[Eagle]

Hi All,

I'm using the wonderful CURL lib to handle data between php-scripts in
the background. However, I am experiencing a problem: Whenever the
processed data is returned for output I see a '0' (zero) appended to
it.
I seem to be unable to get rid of it. I don't even know where this
zero comes from and why it is there. Any help greatly appreciated.

A simple example:

1.)
Script 1 handles some data (e.g. some form input) and sends it to
script 2.

2.)
Script 2 then processes the data and generates the output.

I always see the output like this: output0

Any help greatly appreciated.

Are you doing something like "echo curl_exec($ch);" without setting
the CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER option to non-zero value? If so, then
you're printing the return value of curl_exec() after it prints its
own output.
