Hi.
The Warning you are getting there is produced by you PHP server-side code, so it is very unlikely that it would have anything to do with which browser you are using...
In any case. This warning is produced when you try to use the header() function after something has been printed. Once any content has been added to the response, the header information is locked an you can not modify it.
For example, this here will produce this warning, and you won't be redirected: -
<?php
-
echo "Hello";
-
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
-
?>
-
While this will send you to Google. -
<?php
-
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
-
echo "Hello";
-
?>
-
Check out the Output Control Functions for a simple way to control your output.
Thanks a lot for ur reply, i am struggling very much from this issue,
but still i have doubt, and i.e not cleared, below i sending my script please
have a look, I will explain the script logic how the control is going.
once user enters username and password, then that values will compare with the database tables, if username is valid then it will create one session variable,
once session variable is set then that page is redirecting to index.php
index.php contains and header.php and footer.php
so, my question is where i have to put header information(i.e . redirection page). -
<?php
-
session_start();
-
-
include_once("functions.php");
-
$cxn = connect_to_db("vars.php");
-
?>

<html>

The header() function must be called before anything is added to response. So calling the function where you do will never work. Unless you use the Output Control Functions.
A simpler example, in this case, would be to use Javascript to redirect the browser.
There is of course always a risk using Javascript, as the client's browser can be set to ignore Javascript.
You could try something like this, instead of your header call: -
echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">location.href='http://www.google.com';</script>";
-
I would recommend, however, that you try to design all code, that requires the use of the header function, so that any calls the function are done before you print anything.
Thank you very much Mr.Atli
my problem has solved, in any php script logic should come first then the display part has to come
means in my script i am printing forms before callling header function i interchange as u said.
thank you
