You cannot use header() or anything that relies on it like session_start() after you output any HTML. So, you need to either: 1. Do this stuff at the top of your script before any output (even whitespace). 2. Add <? ob_start() ?> to the very top of your script. This buffers the output until the very end for you. > Warning: Unknown(): Your script possibly relies on a session side-effect > which existed until PHP 4.2.3.

If there is a session variable named blah that has been registered, the syntax $blah references a variable of the same name in globals. The warning is just letting you know that you have probably made a mistake, because when register_globals is off, these are not the same. I would recommend always using the $_SESSION[] syntax, as it is a good idea to leave register_globals off. Hope that helps.
