setcookie

hi there, I am trying to set a cookie. I have never done this before but it is not working. I know the script is working as I have a little piece of code that should set two cookies and then set the header to my welcome page if the authentication is successful. The header information works but the cookies never get set. this is the code snippit. else { setcookie("cookie_p",$md5password); setcookie("cookie_u",$uname); header("Location:http://mysite.com/welcome.php?uname=$uname"); exit(); } Thanks Ken -- I've got all the money I'll ever need if I die by 4 o'clock. -- Henny Youngman
