Cookies Already Sent

[hifigrafix]

I'm trying to incorporate a very simple external user verification to my pages outside of /forum/.

I'll show you my code in a second but - this is the error that I"m getting:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/content/n/o/u/***/html/index1.php
Line: 9

The script worked fine until I tried to logout and then it redirected me back to my index page and gave me the error. I had my cookies storing in /forum/ but then tried just "/" and it didn't make a difference.

Here's my simple script:

<?
chdir("forum/");
require('./global.php');
chdir("../");
?>

AND

<?php if ($vbulletin->userinfo['username'] != '') {
$username=$vbulletin->userinfo['username'];
$logouthash=$vbulletin->userinfo['logouthash'];
print("<align='center'><span class='sectionheader'>Welcome back, $username!&nbsp;&nbsp;( <a href=\"http://www.***/forum/login.php?do=logout&logouthash=$logouthash\">x</a> )");

} else {

echo "Not Logged In";
} ?>

Like I said - outside of this little cookie problem it worked fine.

Thanks

What is between those two PHP blocks?
Any HTML code that get's sent?

Because you can only use those header stuff (in this case setting a cookie, but a redirect would be another example) BEFORE ANYTHING else is sent to the browser.

So if only one byte/char got sent to the browser, no header functions are working anymore.

Some text has already been ouput. Try removing the: echo "Not Logged In";
