Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

ob_start();
session_start();
require("connect.php");
 $username=$_POST['user'];
$password=$_POST['pass'];
$sql=" select * from member where username='$username' and password ='$password'";
$result=mysql_query($sql) or die('query failed:'.mysql_error());
 $line=(mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC));
 $user=$line['username'];
 $pass=$line['password'];
 $lname=$line['lname'];
 $id=$line['mem_id'];
$_SESSION[0]=$user;

Please provide SHORT and COMPLETE reproduce script which we can copy/paste and reproduce the problem.
I'm sure you don't need any databases to reproduce it, do you?
