- If you want to set the return status like this then you have to
- make sure this is the very first header you send. Remember that
- <function>setcookie</function> uses <function>header</function>
- internally and that the session functions might try to set a
- cookie, so these might interfere with setting a return status
- using <literal>header("HTTP ...")</literal>.
+ The HTTP status header line will always be the first sent
+ to the client, regardless of the actual <function>header</function>
+ call beeing the first or not. The status may be overridden
+ by calling <function>header</function> with a new status line
+ at any time unless the HTTP headers have already been sent.
