A number of operations can not be performed once the HTML header has been opened; session_start() should be called well before anything else that generates HTML code, such as a simple echo "Hello". As a test, comment out session_start() and see what gets emitted, that is likely to tell you where you went wrong. And why was your message type "General", rather than "Question"? :)

Are you including this PHP file inside another file? if so make sure that include statement is the first statement in that file

Perhaps you have used Unicode for designing your webpage, beside that "session_start()" must be the first line of your web page . so some times one code has been added to the page for encoding purpose. it's better to use standard PHP editor like "Zend Studio" to see and remove this code before session_start()
