PHP Warnings - sessions

I've been sent screen shots of the following errors on our home page. Apparently closing the browser window and opening a new one resolved the issue, and we've had no other reports, but just interested in possible causes to prevent it occuring again.


PHP Warning

File: [SYSTEM ROOT]/core/include/mysource.inc

Message: session_start(): The session id contains invalid characters



PHP Warning

File: [SYSTEM ROOT]/core/include/mysource.inc

PHP Warning

File: [SYSTEM ROOT]/core/assets/site/site.inc

Message: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [SYSTEM ROOT]/core/include/general.inc:174



And then further down the page…
