   So now I'm suddenly getting this warning, can't login to the admin backend anymore. Read NUMEROUS posts on this forum about this warning and simply cannot figure this thing out. I've checked the files for whitespace, in this case it's complaining about wp-config.php on line 1 and pluggable.php.

   Here's a question - Can these files get modified without the date changing when looking at them on the FTP? In other words, I'm looking at all the file dates and none of them have been modified for months.. This is driving me made, already spent a good 6 hours reading forums and trying stuff......Wordpress is starting to feel like Joomla =(

   The issue is in your wp-config.php file. See Solving "headers already sent" warnings.

   I read that faq several times. Here is my wp-config.php file. I cannot find anything wrong with it:

   Damn, I thought it was this line define( ‘EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS’, 10 ); because it's using the wrong single quote marks but fixing it didn't seem to change anything,, ugh!

   http://pastebin.com/YW3Reuxh for my wp-config file. It's showing a blank line at the end, but I think pastebin put that in because there is no blank line in the file......

   When attempting to log into the admin backend, it's showing this too now:

   Does anyone know the answer to the question I asked about if php files can be changed without their last modified dates changing when looking at them in Filezilla?

    Ok, the problem is finally solved. The FAQ article should be changed so that other people don't pull their hair out like I did:

    This statement is entirely incorrect:
    Open that file in a plain text editor (NOT MS Word or similar. Notepad or BBEdit are fine).

    You CANNOT use Notepad to check these php files. Notepad will NOT display strange characters all the time. I asked a friend for help. He opened the file in HTML Kit http://www.htmlkit.com/ and saw three characters at the beginning of my wp config file. Those characters did not show up no matter how many times I looked at that file in both Windows Notepad and Notepad++.

    From now on, I'm not going to edit any php file unless it's with HTML Kit.

    Just because you cannot see anything does not mean that PHP sees the same.

    Notepad or BBEdit are fine

    Notepad is NOT fine. Using notepad to view the php files caused me to waste over 6 hours. I could have held down backspace at the beginning of that file for all eternity and it wouldn't have erased the characters.
