Thank you very much Dardo!
I finally got it!
I do it like this:
function document_start($filename){
$this->render('document_start');
$this->writetoharddisk($filename, $this->output);
$this->output = '';
}
You made the week end with a success! Thanks a lot to all for your help!
Anja

Every time you call $this->render() in the controller it's output is appended
in $this->output.
Call $this->render(), get the output from there or from $this->output and save
that, the empty $this->output.
