This Warning is shown by PHP when you use the header function to output headers or use the setcookie function to set cookies after any echo or content which is not inside the PHP tag.
We need to make sure functions that send or modify HTTP headers must be invoked before any output is made.
PHP scripts generate HTML content and send HTTP/CGI headers to the webserver. The headers always come first on the page/output. The headers must be passed to the webserver before PHP can do anything else.
The PHP will flush all gathered headers once it receives the first output (print, echo, html>). Following that, it is free to transmit whatever output it desires. It is, however, unable to send any more HTTP headers at that point.
You’ll get errors like the below:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /some/file.php:2) in /some/file.php on line 12
Line no 12 contain header() and setcookie() calls.
There are some functions modifying the HTTP header:
You can generate error(header already sent) as like below PHP code:
<?php
echo "Hello World";
header("Location: /redirect.php");
?> You can utilize output buffering functions to automatically buffer your output before sending it, and the output will be sent in chunks at the end.
The functions that send/modify HTTP headers must be invoked before any output is made. Otherwise, the call fails:
<?php
ob_start(); ?>
Hello World !!!
<?php
setcookie("name","value",100);
?>
Again !!!
<?php
ob_end_flush();
?> <?php or after ?>print, echo and other functions producing output<HTML> sections prior <?php code.This tutorial helps integrate a PHP SDK with Laravel. We'll install aws-php-sdk into laravel application and access all aws services… Read More
