Some Page Troubles

Hello Everyone!
I was looking to make a page for my forum, and I knew that I had to make a php file and the corresponding html file.
the link to the page can be found at
http://soothingchaos.com/forum/aboutus.php
To my surprise it worked, but I have a small issue in the header I get the following Error code on the
Code: Select all
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 4670: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/aboutus.php:1)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 4672: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/aboutus.php:1)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 4673: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/aboutus.php:1)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 4674: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/aboutus.php:1)
Now i had looked at includes.php, and I see where its talking about sending the header again, would it be a simple matter of deleting those lines? Or should eliminate the
Code: Select all
<------INCLUDE OVERALL HEADER.html------>
from the html document?
It seems like its complaining of calling up the header twice so I thought I would ask just to be sure

Well just an update here... i had got it worked out. i backed up a copy of includes.php then erased the lines that were causing the error. after i did this the page worked as intended!

i just went to the custom page and i still see the error in the header so the files have not been fixed! can you post the code you used for the aboutus.php and aboutus.html files? post them in a code box!
and there sholdn't be any include file edits in the functions.php, that code should actually be:
Code: Select all
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->
the error is actually an error in the aboutus.php file, and it also depends on what text editor you used to create the page!

firefox, but you still haven't said what text editor you are using, most likely you have a space at the beginning and/or at the end of the aboutus.php page!

im using firefox as well. but i dont get the error!
but here is the coding in the aboutus.php page.... done in notepad
Code: Select all
<?php
define('IN_PHPBB', true);
$phpbb_root_path = (defined('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH')) ? PHPBB_ROOT_PATH : './';
$phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx);
// Start session management
$user->session_begin();
$auth->acl($user->data);
$user->setup('viewtopic');
page_header('About Us');
$template->set_filenames(array(
'body' => 'aboutus_body.html',
));
make_jumpbox(append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}viewforum.$phpEx"));
page_footer();
?>
EDIT: also i noticed with the error you brought up, that its a different error registering. the original was /includes/functions.php, yours is includes/sessions.php which i cant bloody well figure out why its doing that.

which notepad are you using? the one from windows? the errors might look like from two different files, but it's from the about us php page. make sure there are no spaces before the
or before the
and if you are using the windows notepad, DO NOT USE that one search for and use notepad++

so...
"define ('IN_PHPBB') should be next to <?php
?
and it was the notepad that came with the computer

no the code is fine, but don't use that notepad, use the notepad++ i mentioned in the previous post, the reason the error is because windows' notepad doesn't save the files with BOM, and they need to so just use the text editor i told you about!

ok forgive the double post here. but
Click here to see my new page,
my only concern is that the font size is so small...
i was looking to improve it...make it a little bigger.
Below is the html i used
Code: Select all
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->
<br clear="all" />
<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<td class="cat" colspan="2"><h2>About Us</h2></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="row1" width="100%"><p class="genmed"> We were founded in 2009, by Shadow to bring you the best general discussions forum on the Internet! <br />

<li>Listen and give advice if you want it</li>
</ul><br /></font></p></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- INCLUDE jumpbox.html -->
<!-- INCLUDE overall_footer.html -->
I tried adding a font size tag after <p class>
do i change the size in the paragraph tab?
