Bug #11052: cookie problem

From: dmsales@design-monster.com Operating system: Windows PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: HTTP related Bug description: cookie problem I am rather sure this isn't a php bug. So lets not get unfriendly about it. But i have asked over and over in other places with out an answer. at least point me in the right direction. please I have set up a user login so that it will assign a cookie for one hour - setcookie("cookie_id", $id, time()+3600); The manner in which i suse the expiration is copied form the manual but i have actually tried several alteratives. The problem is the expiration works perfectly locally (i am running apache 1.3 for windows) but once i upload it (linux red hat 5.2 (why so old i dont know)/ apache 1.3.19.) The expiration will not work on my browser(s) unless i increase the expiration to +5000 or above. My client tests it using the same version of IE i have and it will not set the cookie still at +5000 for him. Now i understand from browser to browser there can be differences but why can i set a cookie for +200 locally but not for less than +5000 uploaded when i am most certainly checking it with the same browser (IE 5.5) -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11052&edit=1
