Its telling you that config.php outputted something to the browser on line 27, and for this reason it can't execute your header calls. When no other output is obvious, this is usually because you have some blank lines at the end of an included file.

[mybudgethost]

does it matter that there is no line 27 in the config.php?

I have looked over the code and cannot find any extra spaces.

What now?

Thanks

No extra lines at the end of the file after the "?>" ? In that case, would you be so kind as to post the php files. I'd like to try running them myself and seeing what comes up. The actual files I mean, as an attachment.

I finally got the log in and registration figured out. I was told that I should remove the ?> from config.php and sure enough it works just fine now.

The next problem I am having is with users being able to upload there pictures. I come up with this error:

Warning: copy(userpic/a.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory at edituser.php line 15

This is line 15

copy($_FILES['image1']['tmp_name'], "userpic/a" . $myId . "." . $tmpimage1[1]) or die("Copy of image1 failed!");

This problem stems from nothing being uploaded correct?
I could use some help on this one also

Thanks for you help, appreciate it
