Line 4 of index.php is most likely the issue. What is it? I skimmed through your members.php , not to criticize your work, but it is quite confusing and difficult to follow. Just an observation though :)

Thanks for the advice.
It's actually easier then you think. I basically coded all the "members system"
scripts into "members.php" login, register, logout and all that good stuff is in
members.php, i just use gets and includes. :)

That is a good idea, I just think using switches in place of what you probably should be using functions, is a bad idea. :)

But I am still curious what line 4 of index.php is.

Once output has been sent, you can no longer send headers. Without seeing the code i can already tell you that.

well you are trying to set a cookie in members.php and it is not letting you because some where in your script you have included index.php, and index.php has already sent output.

You may consider using a function that is declared at the top to set the cookie

That's not going to help, because it'd still be called from the same point in the script, i.e. after the headers had been sent.

The only solution to this problem is to re-organise your code so that all processing is always completed before output begins.
