which example might that be, with 1000's of built in functions you can imagine there is probably more than one.

errors. Can anyone determine what I'm doing wrong?

yes. but can your read? the error message tells you what is wrong. "output started at /home/terryswe/public_html/hisdailybread/session.php:6" basically the body of a http request must come after the http headers, sessions make use of cookies. the first echo (or print) statement effectively starts the output of the http request body after which no headers can be sent anymore. what is also plainly obvious is that the example code you posted is *NOT* the code your trying to run: there is no session_start() called on line 9 in the example you gave.

<?php // page1.php session_start(); echo 'Welcome to page #1'; $_SESSION['favcolor'] = 'green'; $_SESSION['animal'] = 'cat';

$_SESSION['time']     = time();

// Works if session cookie was accepted echo '<br /><a href="page2.php">page 2</a>'; // Or maybe pass along the session id, if needed echo '<br /><a href="page2.php?' . SID . '">page 2</a>';

don't bother with the above line, it's shite. which is a short way of saying that you have no idea as to the security ramifications so best not to even go there.
