What are the limitations of displaying continuously updating content in PHP within the SSH console?

When displaying continuously updating content in PHP within the SSH console, the issue is that the console may not always refresh automatically to show the latest content. To solve this, you can use PHP's `flush()` and `ob_flush()` functions to force the output buffer to be sent to the console immediately, ensuring that the content is displayed in real-time. 

<?php

// Start output buffering
ob_start();

// Your continuously updating content
for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
    echo "Updating content: $i<br>";
    
    // Flush output buffer
    flush();
    ob_flush();
    
    // Simulate delay
    sleep(1);
}

// End output buffering
ob_end_flush();

?>
