Re: Re: One more 'Headers Already Sent' error. :-(

Thanks Bruce, I thought you might be on to something because I did have that in the file header.html, however, after removing all such tags so that there was only the raw html that would exist after the <body> tag, it still gives the same error. The exat error message is: "Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at c:\html\demo.e-learn.net\quizd\header.html:1) in c:\html\demo.e-learn.net\quizd\login.php on line 17 " Here is the entire contents of the file header.html: ----------------------code follows----------------------------------------------------- <style> <!-- a { text-decoration: none; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold } a:link { color: #990000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold } a:visited { color: #990000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold } a:active { color: #C0C0C0; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold } a:hover { color: #C0C0C0; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold } --> </style> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" height="75"> <tr> <td width="207" height="43"> <img border="0" src="elearn.jpg" alt="e-Learn Solutions" width="205" height="39"></td> <td width="505" height="43"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="1" bgcolor="#990000" colspan="2"> <img src="khaki.gif" border="0" alt width="1" height="1"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="714" colspan="2" height="1"> <p align="center"><a href="login.php">Login</a> | <a href="logout.php"> Logout</a> | View Quizzes</td> </tr> <tr> <td height="1" bgcolor="#990000" colspan="2"> <img src="khaki.gif" border="0" alt width="1" height="1"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="714" colspan="2" height="21"></td> </tr> </table> -----------------code ends-------------------------------------------------- I did try removing the <style> tag but it had no effect. I'm just stumped.
