RE: [PHP] Cookie for Netscape only?

Also remember that Cookies values are able to be set with the SAME NAME in different directories... If you plan on having a cookie used throughout the site, remember to set it at the highest directory level. setcookie("cookiename","value"); in http://www.mysite.com/subfolder/setcookie.php WILL NOT overwrite setcookie("cookiename","value"); in http://www.mysite.com/setcookie.php and they are each allowed to store their own value. -----Original Message----- From: Browse.co.uk [mailto:amir@browse.co.uk] Sent: Monday, November 06, 2000 11:32 AM To: Zach Hobbs Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Cookie for Netscape only? I use this whenever I want to set a cookie: $lifetime = time() + 86400 * 30; setcookie ("name", $whatever, $lifetime,"/",".mydomain.com"); .... and it works in IE and NS. My guess is that IE is still reading an old cookie and you need to get rid of it. I can only suggest that you delete your cookies from c:windows/cookies and c:windows/temporary internet files and try setting it again. alternatively, do a delete cookie page and try again.

I'm setting a simple cookie with: setcookie("id", $randval, time() + 14400,"/",".domain.com",0 ); Now, the function returns 1, but the cookie only gets set in Netscape. In Internet Explorer the cookie is never set...this script used to work just fine ( a few months back), but now it just doesn't work in IE! Any ideas on possible problems?
