Hello,


I'm receiving an error "Cannot modify header information - headers
already sent by XXX".

In my php, I have a heap of code, then use header("Location: blah.php");
to redirect the user. I get this error on the webhost, but not on my
local host.

I've searched and found that this can be caused by spaces after the
closing php tag, but I don't have any.

What could this be?

Rest assured, *something* is getting output before you try that header()
call. Anything outside of PHP tags (carriage rturns/line feeds/spaces)
any echo or print.

To help you figure it out, try doing something like exit('STARTOFBODY');
instead of the header call. Then view the source of the ouput and see
what precedes that

Pls Make sure that outside your <?php and ?> tags, these is no any
blankspace or sth else.
