Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (outpu

[samcode3]

Hi,
I would be thankfull if anyone could give me the solution for this header problem. There are no blank spaces at end as there is html code in end. I have used <?php session_start() ;?> in first line and in between am checking this for session.

<?php if($_SESSION['reg'] == "email"){ echo "username already taken. Please try another!"; $_SESSION['reg']="";} else if($_SESSION['reg'] == "user"){ echo "Email exist. If you have registered then please login!"; $_SESSION['reg']="";} ?>

After this there is some html code.

The error am getting is:

Warning: session_start() : Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at d:\myprojects\r egistration\ind ex.php:1) in d:\myprojects\r egistration\ind ex.php on line 1

Please reply,
-sam

It simply means that you have already sent something.
Remember that, whe you send a header, NOTHING(!) may have been sent before that. So, before you display anything, do your header. Output means HTML, another header or even having a blank character after the end-PHP tag.
