If I remember correctly, this is something to do with having an XML prologue or comment in the wrong place. Certainly, we'll need to see your code.

Code:

<?

ob_start();

session_start();

?>

Firstly, don't use XHTML, especially not Transitional. Search the forums for one of the many threads on why XHTML is currently a bad idea.

Secondly, remove the blank lines from before your DOCTYPE:

Code:

<?php
  session_start();
  ob_start();
?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

There are other problems with your design too: you shouldn't size things in pixels, for example, especially not fonts. Pixels are different sizes on different resolutions.
