header( ) error

Anon

Can anyone explain the meaning of the following error:

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/localhost/admin/includes/languages/english.php:473) in /home/localhost/admin/customers.php on line 31

thanks in advance

This means that, curiously enough, headers have already been sent to the browser. From the looks of it, something on or near line 473 in english.php sends something to the browser. The header() command can only be used before anything is sent to the browser. That is to say you can't have any sort of print statement or function in a script before you use header().

i checked the english.php file, it only goes up to 471 lines? Is 473 perhaps a code for some type of error?

Anon

there was a problem like that in phpBB, try deleting any extra lines that may be at the end of your script

Anon

thanks that worked! it was the empty space in the script!
