unable to redirect after loading values in session?

Question

after the session values are loaded from database, the header redirect below is giving error ?

while($row=mysql_fetch_row($res))
{
            $_SESSION['id']=$row[0];
            $_SESSION['name']=$row[1];
            $_SESSION['rollno']=$row[2];
            $_SESSION['pass']=$row[3];
            $_SESSION['email']=$row[4];
            $_SESSION['secans']=$row[5];
            $_SESSION['mob']=$row[6];     
            header("location:index.php");
 }

the error on the check.php page

headers already sent by (output started at /home/name/public_html/fest/header.php:19) in /home/name/public_html/fest/check.php on line 40 (line 40:  header("location:index.php"); )

Your `header.php` printed something in line 19. – Till Helge Apr 26 '13 at 07:31 — Till Helge, Apr 26 '13 at 07:31
Why are you trying ro redirect in while loop? – chandresh_cool Apr 26 '13 at 07:33 — chandresh_cool, Apr 26 '13 at 07:33

The header() is inside the while loop. Put the header() outside the while loop.

It should look like this:

while($row=mysql_fetch_row($res))
{
            $_SESSION['id']=$row[0];
            $_SESSION['name']=$row[1];
            $_SESSION['rollno']=$row[2];
            $_SESSION['pass']=$row[3];
            $_SESSION['email']=$row[4];
            $_SESSION['secans']=$row[5];
            $_SESSION['mob']=$row[6];     

 }

          header("location:index.php");
