Re: session_start() and header

I would think because session_start() is trying to output cookie header information yet you have already output something. You must call session_start() before anything has been output (blank lines, spaces, anything) e.g: (blank line) <?php session_start(); ?> I think would not work. You must have something like: <?php session_start(); ?> or any other php code you have there, as long as it doesn't "print" or "echo" anything before the session_start() call. I hope that helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: sarahana <sarahana@cyberjunkie.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2000 5:25 PM Subject: [PHP-GENERAL] session_start() and header > Hi, > I was just wondering: How come when I use session_start(); the error is > > Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent in > C:\HTTPD\HTDOCS\admin.php > > ? > > thanks, > sarahana > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > >
