Problems with header command
Posted: Sat May 24, 2008 6:09 am
I'm confused on this one. I've got a PHP / MySQL search engine on my site.
http://www.didymus.org.uk/tree.php
Enter a search query and click SEARCH and it works fine.
If no search parameter is specified and the SEARCH button is clicked, the code SHOULD re-direct to a page called search2.php.
However, it doesn't. It returns the following errror:
Any suggestions?!

Not sure what I've done wrong. Here is the code for the query.php page:Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/kdidymus/public_html/query.php:9) in /home/kdidymus/public_html/query.php on line 21
