Trouble modifying application_top.php

[Guest]

I am trying to get the site to work without an frame and all i need to do is add my site header to application_top.php so that it appears on all the oscommerce pages but i can't get it to work without getting this error:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /hsphere/local/home/revengep/revengeproductsinc.com/catalog/includes/application_top.php:1) in /hsphere/local/home/revengep/revengeproductsinc.com/catalog/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 102

 

Please Help. Thanks guys

What about adding it to includes/header.php itself (or change/adapt it to your design)?

will that apply it to all pages? i thought i had to use application_top because it was the first in line. i'll give it a try.

 

i changed the site back around so you can't see the error if anyone is wondering. i'll come back to let you know how it worked. thanks again!

Trying to include html via application_top.php is not a good idea, application_top sets up the parameters including the session and if you output html before the session then you will get header errors.

 

As Jan said header.php is the place.

 

It is odd the way oscommerce is "organised" I must admit, the first thing I ever do to a new release is "reorganise it" so that header goes from doctype to <-- body text //--> (including column_left) and footer goes from <-- body text eof //--> to </html> (including column_right)

i just needed a little direction. thanks again!!!

 

I will post a link to the site when it is revamped.

 

I am actually a fine art major so the help i get from these forums is all i've got so i don't end up just another starving artist :)
