Question

Answer 1

A:

I am surprised that those 3 blank lines cause problems with anything.

Anyway, they could be just about anywhere. Look for any lines in your files that aren't within PHP tags. You could have a common include for example that has 3 blank lines at the end of it. It could be anything. Typically, it will be before or after your <?php ?> blocks.

Answer 2

+1 A:

Ensure all output buffering is of.
Call headers_sent($file,$line); at a point in time you know you already sent output (doesn't matter where, it can be at the end of the request).
Voilà, $file & $line hold the position where output started.

If the return of headers_sent is true, but $line==0, you'll have to look into auto_prepends.

Answer 3

A:

I'd say those lines would have to be in one of your first includes in your template. Quite possibly you may have whitespace outside of you <?php ?> blocks for your configuration or function include files.

I was able to find one of the lines as there was whitespace in the html_header.php file. Still struggling with the additional lines

Dan 2010-09-29 18:29:47

@Dan - they will be in similar places. You may want to check all header files and be aware of any line breacks between ?> blocks. Even include files will generate line breaks if they appear outside the ?>.

Answer 4

A:

Locate this in your files in the directory (use search in files) and you will probably find the blank lines

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en">

Answer 6

A:

Make sure to look after your closing ?> as well. Anything after it will be sent to output; this is actually a good reason why you shouldn't use the closing ?> at the end of your PHP files.
