Maybe I am missing something, but unfortunately the above suggested link did not help me with the following problem:
I have a file (doctype_head.php) that also has an include of an authentication file for logins that I load first thing on all my webpages. Last time I logged in to check my login-system index.php file I got this warning:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at www.haushalts-geld.de\include\doctype_head.php:40) in www.haushalts-geld.de\login\admin\index.php on line 53
I know I get this warning because of a header() call in line 53 in index.php and I also know how to fix it. This warning seems connected to the amount of characters in "doctype_head.php". As far as I know no output is sent before the aforementioned header() call. Otherwise deleting just a few characters from my comments text (<!--bla bla-->
) in "doctype_head.php" would not have solved the headers already sent warning, I guess. The thing is, everything works fine only if I keep the text in "doctype_head.php" to a certain length. I tested it up to the point where I just have to add one single character to "doctype_head.php" and get the above warning. If I remove this character again, everything works without warning.
So, that's why I wonder if it could be that I am only allowed a certain amount of characters for my HTTP header before my output starts? I thought that the included authentication file within "doctype_head.php" might be the culprit, since this alone is already about 6KB. If so, what can I do to fix this? And if not, any ideas what else I am missing? Thanks for your help.
