Re: [PHP-DB] Headers sent error msg on one server but not the other.....
I suggest you to activate Output Buffering at beggining of your code. It's so easy and should not modify the output of your code. This prevents your error Headers already sent. At the first line of your PHP code, insert ob_start() and in the end of your code insert ob_clean_flush(). If you do not want to use Output Buffering you should remove any character sent, including Cr Lf (\n\r). I think it's so hard and I don't recommend it. Depending of your server, PHP can evaluate \n\r as nothing or evaluate \n\r as an output.

[PHP-DB] Headers sent error msg on one server but not the other...
Hey Folks,
I have a script that times out the session if there is no activity in a
certain amount of time. If there is no activity the HEADER()
redirects to the logout page and kills the session. Everything works
fine on our test server, but when I test the script on the production
server, I get an error HEADERS ALREADY SENT... after no activity. I
know all this stuff needs to be on top, before any XHTML.
The test server has reg globals = OFF and the production server has
them set to ON. I can't change the any PHP.INI settings on the
production server. Both servers are running PHP 4.3.10. Other than
that PHP installation is close to identical. Any ideas / thoughts on
what's causing the production server to send this error out? Something
to steer me in the right direction... I'm attaching a code snippet to
look at:
if (mysql_num_rows($result) 0) {
$_SESSION[valid_user] = $email;
}
elseif ($t_timestamp $c_timestamp) {
HEADER(Location: logout.php);
exit;
}
Best,
CH

Re: [PHP-DB] Headers sent error msg on one server but not the other.... .
Check that there is no output generated before your script hits the
Header() function calls. The most common mistake I've noticed is that if
you require() or include() many files before you call Header(), and if
there is any content outside of the ?php ? tags in the includ()'ed
or require()'d files (eg. a carraige return at the end, or a space after
the ?.
Check for that and that should fix your problem.

Re: [PHP-DB] headers
Hi, you can't have ANY output whatsoever before adding a header. Even whitespaces before the opening ?php-tag are not possible. You also could turn "output_buffering" "ON" in your php.ini. But your ISP has to have them same setting and I don't know about disadvantages. So go with the first solution.

RE: [PHP-DB] headers
You need to put the headers before any output has been sent to the user, not
line on line 6, line 2 if possible. This includes spaces or blank lines
before the start of your php.
e.g. Here is script that creates a simple image:
?php
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @ImageCreate (200, 200) or die ("Cannot Initialize new GD image
stream");
$background_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 00, 00, 00);
$text_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 233, 14, 91);
ImageString ($im, 90, 20, 20, "Hello", $text_color);
ImagePng ($im);
?
Regards,
Corin Rathbone
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
P.S. If you use the script you need the GD Image librays installed and
enabled.
