Re: Setcookie problem in ie 5.0

You must set a cookie at one page and send the user to another page so that the browser can recognize the cookie, it's strange but it works. Making that way, you would have a first screen with the login, a second page to authenticate the user and a third page with your aplication. The second page would redirect the user to the third. (Its functions would be set the cookie and redirect the user). Georges. Rustam Nabirov wrote: > I'm using IE5.0 on Win98, it's as simple as it gets. But still I don't see > any cookies saved.
