In the future when you're posting code please paste it in between [ code ][ /code ] tags (without the spaces). I've edited your post to put them in for you this time.

 

To solve your problem remove all the whitespace before your call to header that is outside of the PHP tags (<?php ?>). This includes the whitespace in your include files.

output started at C:\wamp\www\widget_corp\includes\connection.php:9 (line 9)

 

^^^ Simple, just read the error message, then look at your connection.php code, line 9 to see why it might be sending output to the browser.

 

You have a closing ?> php tag, followed by a new-line, then another opening <?php tag. The new-line in the file is content that is output to the browser. Why do you have that and in fact why did you put a closing php tag only to put an opening php tag after it?
