Sessions Problem

[thepez]

I keep getting this error when I try to set a session variable:

Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by ...

I know the session stuff has to be the first thing on the page and it is so I dont get it.. Code is below:

<?php
session_start();

include "globals.php";

$dbconn = mysql_connect("$server","$user","$pass");
$result = mysql_select_db("$db", $dbconn);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM login WHERE login='$login' AND password='$password'";
$result = mysql_query($sql);

if(mysql_num_rows($result)==0)
{
print "Invalid username or password.";
die();
}else{
$loggedin = "1";
session_register('loggedin');
}
?>

BTW: PHP is one of the most difficult languages to learn and its by far NOT user friendly, its driving me nutz. I have to ask questions about every stupid little thing I do in it but I am forced to use it. ARGH!.. Sorry, just venting..

I've tried executing your code on my machine and it works. Have you made sure that there's no whitespace in your file. Like before <?php there should be no line on top... it should be on the first line since if you have one, an empty line will be sent before session header is sent. I think that might be it.

HA, yes I had a blank line and the top.. Picky picky PHP.. ggeeeeez!~

its absolutely easy to use if u read the manual

(a shot at PHP is a shot at me)
