    session_start()

    OK, just to get this out of the way first... I am >NOT< outputting
    anything BEFORE my call to session_start() . The error I am getting is
    NOT related to the session header having already been sent.

    I am running on LAMP, and my code works in ALL cases but one... if I
    pass it a value of category_id=259 , then the call to session_start()
    bombs and I get an empty page. This doesn't happen for ANY other
    category_id. I am at a complete loss here. Has anyone else seen
    similar behavior?

      Check your error logs or enable the display_errors directive in php.ini file
      to get more information. Also, make sure that the error_reporting level is
      set to E_ALL.

          Thanks for the quick response, JW. error_reporting was set to E_ALL &
          ~E_NOTICE, but the other settings were correct.

          That said, while I was trying what you described I managed to discover
          that it was running out of memory because it was a particularly LARGE
          category. Odd that it wasn't giving me the usual "ran out of memory"
          error, but when I expanded the memory from the default 8M to 16M (MAN,
          I don't like a page needing that much memory to render) the error went
          away.

              It used to happen to me with the number 153.
              So, the first thing I do to *every* database I ever build is invalidate
              the number 153 there.
