Thanks. There is no blank line at the top of the file. The line:
'------- Connections/gleanslo.php and the space after it 'are a
separator I put in the post to the make the different code sections
clear.

I removed the if(!isset($_SESSION)) session_start(); line from the
connection script that is called by the cron job and did not get an
error warning this mornng.

Thank you to all that responded.
