Re: Weirdness with setcookie() (3rd time - come on people :)

So when you call another_file.php there is no >cookie being sent to the browser. Does that make sense? no, that's not right, the redirect, the browser makes a separate request for the new file, and so should send the cookie. here's some things to check: 1) are cookies turned on? (obviously) 2) the specs I've seen say to use a full url ("http://www.mydomain.com/admin/another_file.php") you might want to try that. 3) is another_file.php in /admin/ ? if not the cookie doesn't get sent with the request. - Mark
