Sendmail.php - heading error following check_input
Posted on

Hi,
I would greatly appreciate some help? I am brand new to PHP and have been searching and editing code ALL day :shrug:yet I still cannot find the reason for this error in my Sendmail.php file:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/appleis/public_html/sendmail.php:3) in /home/appleis/public_html/sendmail.php on line 48
My only thought is it may be related to the function "show_error" which has a html section and may affect the browser cache. I don't know how to fix that?
The above error is occurring when all test data entered is in the correct style and fields validate. If I deliberately leave out a valid field, my check controls and show_error work properly yet as soon as they are fixed the next submit casues the heading error statement.
I am using a html form & I know all my fields in html are correct.
Any help is much appreciated, Dennis
My Sendmail.php code is as follows, the bad code line is in red:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.style1 {
background-color: C7AEC7;
}
</style>
</head>
