WampServer

Hello guys;
Sorry about this, I a beginner PHP developper, I need some help plase.
I wrote this script yesternight on my index.php file located under the apache directory directly,
<?php
ob_start();
header("Location: www.google.co.uk";
ob_flush_end();
?>

this script generates me a error pricising that the header are alredy sent, I copied the script created an other file named "test.php" and tried again over the new file, "THE SCRIPT WORKS CORRECTLY". so what's up now, do this script or doesn't it.

I noticed so, that no function that uses headers works on that file why "the index.php mistery". no session_start() no header() nothing.

For attention, I'm using wamp5 server in it's last version.
I worked with headers for a long time (with older versions of apache and php), I have not seen such problems.

So I'll be thankful, if any one can help.

you cannot have any kind of text, code, spaces,etc before a header



<?php
header("Location: www.google.co.uk";
?>

But I have no kind of spaces, characters, ..
To use headers function they must be first lines of codes even befor html code.
An other alternative is to use output buffering like this way :
<?php
ob_start();
session_start();
header("Location: [www.google.com"];
ob_end_flush();
?>
notice here that I used two header functions in the same code, it's works perfectly everywhere, but the index.php file,

Strange isn't it.

as i stated before, you cannot put anything (code, text, spaces, etc) before your header() command. you cannot use output buffering here. it causes a header already sent error because the ob_start() code has already been executed. remove the output buffering code on your script and you will be fine,
