Problem with sessions and header

[Anon]

hi,

i have the following problem:

this works:
<?php
#session_start();
include ('functions.inc.php');
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
readfile("/home/u409054/test.pdf");
?>

and this doesn't

<?php
session_start();
include ('functions.inc.php');
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
readfile("/home/u409054/test.pdf");
?>

can anyone help me??

I have had header problems before. On a page I did that had a problem, I fixed it with this:

<?
include ("db.php");

session_start();
if(!isset($uid)) {
echo("....")
etc. etc.

I am not sure what you are doing with the two lines:

header("Content-type: application/pdf");
readfile("/home/u409054/test.pdf");

but they might be a problem.
