Question

Answer 1

+3 A:

You are outputting <title></title> before starting the session, this means that all HTTP headers are already sent and it's impossible to add a session cookie to the response. Move your code up so it looks like:

<?php
session_start();
?>
<title></title>

Answer 2

+3 A:

The session_start() function must be called before any output if you use cookies.

In your case, it seems that you use cookies and the <title></title> output prevent the session_start() to be called.

Notes on the PHP.net documentation :

Note:

To use cookie-based sessions, session_start() must be called before outputing anything to the browser.

Resources :

php.net - session_start()

Answer 3

+2 A:

Session has to be initialized before you print anything (like HTML).

Change your code to

<?php session_start(); ?>
<html>
...

and it will work.
