my sessions are not working

[carlosa69]

sessions not working. When I run this script:

<?php
session_start();
session_register("dir");
$dir=".";
?>

I get this error:

Warning: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\punksite\folderfunc.php:2) in fileman.php on line 2

does anybody know what the problem is?

Yes. You sent some output before "session_start()"

session_start() (or anything that sends header data) must be the first PHP code to generate output.
Note: That does not mean that it should be the first command.
2nd Note: HTML outside the <? ?> tags is also output!

To be clearer,

your code should look something like this:

<?
session_start();
//more session stuff here
?>

<!--- html stuff AFTER the session stuff --->
</html
