After i run the commands above i do the [ print phpinfo(); ] statement , when i go down to php variable and look at cookies , there are now two identical named cookies eg. PHPSESSID = 2%C something and PHPSESSID = 234313414837418374813748dfaj (long id number) Instead of deleting the damn cookie , i create a new one it seems ! wat is there to do ? Thanks Shaun
