// include 'config.php'; // include 'opendb.php';

above code works fine, if i comment DB connection part and inculde config.db and Opendb, then i get the error as Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\Joomla\Config.php:8) in C:\xampp\htdocs\Joomla\ConfXml.php on line 103

Both file are used for opening DB only.

Answer 1

"header already sent" error may caused by some extra space/linefeed after your php ending tag ?>

try to remove ending tag ?> in C:\xampp\htdocs\Joomla\Config.php

Answer 2

You may used echo and header within same page. thats why error comes.
