As you might discover from searching the boards, the "headers already sent error" means that you have something being outputted before the command you're trying to call (in this case, session_start().

As the error message states, the output which caused headers to be sent was on line 1 of index.php. Eliminate or move the output from line 1 (be it an HTML tag, empty space/line, Unicode BOM marker, etc.) and that error message should go away.

I'm not sure why you have to mean and mysterious about it just tell them the answer....

Jesus Christ....

Simply put the answer is the php script has to start on line 1...

thinking as an html person you think the !doctype should be on top... not so in php... try taking your code out of the body and putting it on line 1....

after it works i would suggest hiring someone knowledgeable in this forum to clean up your mess... it will help you in the long run...

you love me..
