session_start() MUST be always on the very top of each script. before any ouput is sent to the output buffer.also php warnings and notices etc. sometime gives output without you knowing it. try setting the error_reporting to none.

Yes, if you use sessions, session_start() must be on the top of each page; before the <html> tag even! For cookies, it would be setcookie('COOKIENAME', COOKIEVALUE, COOKIELIFETIME'). I think that it is because when you post <html><head> it sends an automatic cookie from the site you are on.

not really. it happens because when you start to print out html tags, it is already sent to the browser. it is a rule that you can only change html header if there are no output yet sent to the browser.
