Once any content has been sent back, the headers have already been set and you can't subsequently call header(). For an easy fix, you should be able to turn on output buffering for the request and all of the output will be held until the entire page is finished processing: http://php.net/manual/en/function.ob-start.php Alternatively, you can sift through you code looking for any output (even a single whitespace) that's present before the call to header in the menu.php file referenced in your error.
