Help with header sending

[dabip]

Hello, I have searched, and searched, I have found sites that are supposed to help, but they don't. I have two forms of SQL - PHP working. One on my computer, and another on an outer computer web server (free hosting). I develop on my computer (to save bandwidth) and then put it on the server and quickly test it. Well, I'm making a forum, and everything seems to work really well on my computer. When I put it on the server, I had a few header problems. I read about tweaking php system files, but since its not my server, I can't.


Error I get:

All code on the error page, everything is going through (so I know, such as the $_POST items) it just seems to be the header.
[code]
$username = "user10342";
$password = "(Its a secret :) )";
$hostname = "localhost";    
$dbh = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
    or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
$selected = mysql_select_db("12141",$dbh)
    or die("Could not select dab");
    $once = 0;
if (isset($_COOKIE['in'])){
    ob_start();
    setcookie("in", "", time()-36000);
    setcookie("upass", "", time()-36000);
    setcookie("id", "",  time()-36000);
    
    ob_end_flush();
    
    echo "You've been logged Out. <a href=index.php> Click Here to go Back</a>";
        //header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently'); // Clean 301 header
        //header("Location: index.php"); // Jump to the link

} else {
if (isset($_POST['name']) && isset($_POST['pass']))
{
  $user=$_POST['name'];
  $pass=$_POST['pass'];
  $user=mysql_real_escape_string($user);
  $pass=mysql_real_escape_string($pass);

  $sql22 = "select login, password, id from users where login='$user' and password='$pass'";
  $result22=mysql_query($sql22);

  if (mysql_num_rows($result22) > 0)
  {
      
      ob_start();
      setcookie("in", $user, time()+36000);
    setcookie("upass", $pass, time()+36000);
    header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently'); // Clean 301 header
    header("Location: index.php"); // Jump to the link
    ob_end_flush();
     echo("You've been logged in! <a href=index.php> Click Here to go Back</a>");

    
  }
  else
  {
    echo("Whoops!  Wrong user name or password!<a href='index.php'> Click Here to Make an account</a>");
  }
}
$once =0;


$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT name, password, id FROM users where name = '$user' and password = '$pass' ");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result2)) {
    if ($once == 0){
    session_start();
    setcookie("id", $row['id'], time()+36000);
    $once = 1;
    break;
}
}

Many people have the same problem. Try to search the forum before posting a question that has been answered extensively.

Well, I checked out the link, and I read what it had to say about header sending. I don't see my problem, as I'm not sending any HTML at all. No echoing, nothing. The code you saw was all that was saved on the file. (besides the <?php tags).

[Crimpage]

View the source of the page when you get these errors and post the top say, 30 lines here.

That should show you what has been sent already.

Also have you got and include()'s that might be putting something to screen?

[dabip]

No, I don't have any includes.

Here is the resulting HTML code from the page that has errors.
[code]<br />

Here is the URL to the file-ish. Just type in admin for the username then guest for the password (all lowercase). Then you will get the error page right when you hit login.

[.josh]

so uh.. what about that br tag up there?

[trq]

That <br /> tag is part of the error output, however, there does seem to be some whitespace. make sure there is nothing (no whitespace) before your <?php tags.

[dabip]

That space was from the forum. It's not really there on the code. And there isn't any spaces on the top <?php either. Code of the top:

[code]<?php
$username = "user10342";
$password = " Secret ";
$hostname = "localhost";    
$dbh = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
    or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
$selected = mysql_select_db("12141",$dbh)
    or die("Could not select dab");
    $once = 0;

if (isset($_COOKIE['in'])){
[/code]
That is only the top of the code.

[dabip]

So would anyone happen to know what my problem could be?

[.josh]

is that file being included into another file?

[dabip]

No. I'm going to it from a form.
So, on index, I have a form that asks for the username and password, and when you hit login, I get the data through the $_POST command.

It seems the problems are only the cookie and the head( commands.

So,
setcookie("in", "", time()-36000);
setcookie("upass", "", time()-36000);
setcookie("id", "", time()-36000);
and
setcookie("in", $user, time()+36000);
setcookie("upass", $pass, time()+36000);
header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently'); // Clean 301 header
header("Location: index.php"); // Jump to the link

are the problemed code.

Here is the Index login code:

[code]
echo "You are not logged in!<br /><form method='POST' action='in.php'>
    <p>Name&nbsp; :&nbsp; <input type='text' rows='1' name='name' cols='20' size='52'><br>
    Passqord&nbsp;&nbsp; :&nbsp; <input type='password' name='pass' size='52'><br>
    <p><input type='submit' value='Log In' name='B1'></p></form>";
    
    }
[/code]

[dabip]

Well, some how I got it.

I (searched for the error and found/)read:
[a href=\"http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/1100.htm\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/1100.htm[/a]

And tried what the guy on the last post did. And it worked for me too. I think that mabye my cache or something had a bit of the old code too. So, deleting the old one, creating a new text file, might of triggered a complete file refresh or something. I'm not sure. But it works perfect now. Thanks everyone for the help! :)
