I have a page I'm calling headers on. I'm getting the error

PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by

So i use headers_sent() to see where the issue is. It says line 1. At line 1 I only have a <?php on the line with NO white space before it. more test.. same error. I then remove everything and only have one line of code with a header(Location:http://www.blabla.com) on line 1. Again no white space before or after PHP. Still the same error.

Why is this happening? Why are my headers failing? Thanks much.

1) Post your code, copy/paste it in.

2) The cause might be that there is an invisible character before the "<?php". Some text editors or IDEs can do some odd things. To see if this is the issue, open a new file, type (don't copy/paste) your code in -- just the part causing the problem -- and see if your are still getting the error.

Code is fine. like i said in my post... even a plain header(Location:..) no worky.

!!!!!!!!!!! ITS WORKING. Thanks so much. Your right there must have been a funky invisible character in the code. Thanks so much for this so easy solution.

since there was a lot of code to re-type, first i tried just grabbin all code, minus the first and last character, then added into a new file and saved over the old... Yeah!

Found the problem. Thanks to all those that helped.

Basically there was some type of invisible character in the beginning of my file. I copied all of the file but the first and last character, then pasted into a new doc. Saved over the old doc and it works!

I'm using EditPlus3 text editor in case anyone knows why this invisible char was added.

The reason i asked you to copy/paste the code in was to see if the post would pick up the character; not because I suspected your code was wrong.

I'm glad you solved the issue =)

I use GoLive CS2 (only for the php fill in feature) and it has thrown that shit at me a few times.
