Re: [PHP-DEV] Bug #322: Header function works not correctly if include file contains trailing lines From: Zeev Suraski (bourbon <email protected>)
Date: 04/28/98

It's not a bug. Newlines outside the PHP code block will be sent as-is to
the browser as HTML, first triggering the HTTP header. After the HTTP
header is sent, you can't use the header() function anymore.
