Re: SetCookie question

Jim, It should work, just send it before sending any other information. Like, if you are doing an imagecookie for tracking, you'd 1 fopen and read the gif or jpg 2 set a cookie 3 set content-type: image/gif 4 print fopened data (the image, even if a 1x1 pixel) Cookie should be sent along with it. I've done this before, back before I swore off cookies and back when I was using Cold Fusion (read: I've not done it in PHP, but PHP is way better than CF, so it's most likely doable).
