The page this error came up on does have a session_start() at the beginning but doesn't actually call any session variables. It does extract the visitor's username from a previously set cookie to see if they're logged in, but it references that as $_COOKIE['username'] which as far as I understand is legitimate. It doesn't use any uninitialized variables. Any ideas?
