Solution

  • You should not echo anything before sending headers.

    <?php
function clearBrowserCache() {
    header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
    header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");  
    header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");  
    header ("Pragma: no-cache");
}
clearBrowserCache();

$_SESSION['test']="demo";
echo $_SESSION['test'];
?>

    Otherwise, enable output_buffering in the php.ini
