COOKIE problems

Hello Everyone, I have set my session.save_path to C:/PHP/tmp_sessions, from the default. Does this change also affect the way I use cookies? The problem I'm having with cookies is that I set a cookie and I confirm to see if it exists by running a print_r($_COOKIE). Ok, so the cookie I set exists. Now I test it in an if() statement like so: index.php ------------------------------ if (isset($_COOKIE['var'])) { [Do This] } else { [Do That] } When I do this it shows that the index.php page doesn't even exist. But when I say: index.php ------------------------------ if (!isset($_COOKIE['var'])) { [Do This] } else { [Do That] } The index.php page loads just fine. So how can it not exist in an if() statement after I've already tested its existance and confirmed that it does, in fact, exist? Actually, what confuses me is why the index.php page doesn't even load at all while checking the cookie's existance in the if() statement. This is all really frustrating to me. I would really appreciate your help, guys. Note: The cookie I set doesn't expire for a long while. I set the cookie on a separate page than the index.php page, then used the header()'s redirect function to redirect to the index.php page. Also sessions work fine using the current session.save_path setting. The cookies get set and are saved in that directory that I asked it to save it to. -----Original Message----- From: Ilja Polivanovas [mailto:ilja.polivanovas@assis.lt] Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2003 11:29 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Re: PHP as daemon process > > > > Hallo all > > Hallo. > > > Does anybody know how to run PHP script via PHP-CLI as daemon process in > > Linux or FreeBSD? > > Well, which?
