usually that message means you have already outputted something to the browser. It could even be a space above the starting <?.
Take a look and see if there is any output at all.

you can't have anything otherwise it will give you that error. ;)
if ($result)
{
// success so redirect user to view shoutbox.
$siteurl = 'view.php';
redirect();
}
function redirect() {
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"3;URL=http://www.site.com\">\n";
echo "Thank you, please wait....\n";
exit;}
?>
Or something like that.
And welcome to Webmaster World.
:)
If it is just redirecting to a page on your site then you could also just include the page. The meta refresh will work just fine also.
