The header() redirect is dependent on the same condition that the session_start() is, that no output has been sent to the browser before the header.

 

output started at /home/worldw44/public_html/Newsletter/Admin/Admin.php:1 (line 1)

 

Please read the following sticky thread (especially the last post about the BOM characters) - http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/php-coding-help/header-errors-read-here-before-posting-them/

 

Edit: You also need an exit; statement after your header() redirect to prevent access to the remainder of the 'protected' code on your page. Anyone can currently still access your protected pages by simply ignoring the header() redirect.
