Hi,

This is really a very general question, which has been asked a few times today already. Next time please do a search of the forum..

Basically, it tells you that the session cannot be started, because there has been output created already.
Sessions should be satrted before ANY output is generated to the browser. The error is the result by output created in your conn.php file.

If you look at the last line, you see some of the output: No Database Selected.
Correct that, make sure there is no other output before you start the session/cookie, and the error should disappear.

PS: I am not stalking you.. Just answering questions. How is your PhP skill improving?

You should check that the first thing on your page is your session_start() command. Or, if it isn't, that there are no things 'echod' or 'prin'ed to screen. Remember: Error messages generate ddue to a missing database link ALSO are seen as output.

I think tha tif you get you rdatabase connection working, there should not be a problem anymore. So focus on that first.

hi i have not yet created a database yet do you think this is the problem.

No, it means that that is not the problem. Your problem is still the same one that leatherback said was the problem in his first post.
