Ahhh... but the million dollar question is if you understand WHY it
worked... 

Do you understand that this is a workaround and if you coded correctly
you wouldn't need it? 

Output buffering to enable a header() redirect later in your code is
almost never needed if you code correctly. Think about it: if you're
going to redirect to a new page, why would you have output!?
