I would not store the user's password in a cookie. 2.) As far as I know, set_cookie() has worked the same since PHP3, so your problem is something else, not the PHP version. Are you sure $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SERVER_NAME'] is the same as what's in the location bar in your browser. If the server name is set up as www.domain.com but the user is just at http://domain.com the cookie won't set.
