JtB> Hi all,
JtB> I'm having trouble with cookie use;

Jeroen:
How do you start the other script ? If you include() it or
require() it, the cookie will not be visible. You need to do
a redirect, with header("Location: other.php") or some other way,
to this other script, so that the cookie will be sent back by the
browser and made visible to the script.
From the PHP Manual, XX. HTTP Funtions, setcookie:
" Common Pitfalls:
Cookies will not become visible until the next loading of a page
that the cookie should be visible for. "
