Re: Cookie not getting set

James: Thanks for your suggestions- I am aware of the <? ?> issues (which by the way I would have noticed as a problem because I would have got an error about headers already sent, as I have not turned off the error reporting :) ) and as far as the time()+totaltime - yes, I agree with you - but that will not make a difference to the code executing - the actual time string will be time()+31536000 - that that is neither here nor there... Thanks anyhow. So far we have this: <? setcookie("dealercode", "33", time()+60*60*24*365,"/",".vtc.com",0); header('Location: login.php'); ?> And that is it - no spaces b4 or after. I am hoping that someone at another level has an I idea - I have been working PHP for about 3 years now, and I have set millions of cookies - and never had a problem - I am almost convinced that it is something to do with the domains - but I am not familiar enough with how the cookie rules are applied here, and why it would work in some browsers and not others (all browsers tested with are set to accept all cookies....) if it is not a php issue, feel free to tell me to piss off, but if someone has run into this b4 I would appreciate any pointers in the right direction...
