In fact, the error say that the headers were set on line 6, which is <?php. How can this be? Is there something I need to turn off like default headers? Thanks, J_K9

What is before line 6? Because the <?php should be at line 1 could you post the code from line 1 to line 10?

Lines 1-10: ---- <html> <head> <title>Downloads</title> </head> <body> <?php // fix for IE catching or PHP bug issue header("Pragma: public"); header("Expires: 0"); // set expiration time ---- Should I remove the HTML?

Exactly! HTML "is" output ya know? -- Smileys rule (cX.x)C --o(^_^o) Dance for me! ^(^_^)o (o^_^)o o(^_^)^ o(^_^o)
