You need to put that at the top of the page ontop of everything else (the php script, your not allowed html above it if you are setting cookies)

Im not saying that, Im saying this:

If you have anything that needs a header, like starting sessions cookies or just using header(""); you need to make sure its at the top of the page.

E.g.

<html>
<head>
<title>Hello</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php header("Location: index.php"); ?>
</body>
</html>

That would produce a header error, so you have to use:

<?php header("Location: index.php"); ?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

So its at the top of the page

But if its at the top of the page, you can still have php above it, like:

<?php
$string = "insert";
$stupid = "idiots";
$in = "here";
header("Location: index.php");
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Get what I mean?

You can only send headers before you've sent any output to the browser.

AHH Thanks for that - it clears it up.

is that the same for session_start() and ob_start or whatever they are :)?

Yep - cookies and sessions must be intiated before any output is sent to the browser, otherwise you better have a raincoat on, because there will be errors.
