thanks u for your reply but problem is i can't figure out where is my problem is so please help me

Well, the answer to your problem is in the link. What is in that link is what your problem is. Also the error message says it too.

 

It means something has already been sent to the webbrowser, like some HTML (and with that some header data).

 

Also, in the code you posted, this is line 15:

// Only generate when user not POST'ing data

And that would not generate such an error message...

 

What happens in the config.php file?

 

check the html source of the page you get the error on, is there any text before the errors?

thats the config php file

 

<?php
// Set your email address here

Did you read the link? Because if that's really the contents of your file, it's quite obvious where the problem is. Whitespace before <?php.

You have output being sent to the browser prior to the session_start() call, as noted by the error: output started at /public_html/2.php:3. You can't output anything to the browser before sending headers.
