RE: [PHP] I want a cookie!!!

and because it is 2am and you are sucking down your N+1 cup of coffee, it takes you an hour to figure out that the parse error is a { that should be a ( am embarrased to count the number of times I have been hit by that one :) PT/ have you tried /subdirectory/ echo back what result time()+6000 gives you in d m y H:M format... is this the GMT expirey time that you want? (remember coding GMT GMT expiry for cookies for some reason, maybe not required) explain this a little more clearly > "the ultimate goal: set a cooking with the file in the subdirectory that can be accessed when called from any file in the domain."

If I do not include the "/" and the ".mydomain.com" and the 0, then it works perfectly fine. But with the above, it doesn't work at all. I am trying to set this cookie from a file in a subdirectory of / I have tried changing "/" to "/subdirectory", i've tried ".mydomain.com" "mydomain.com",i've tried a 1 for a 0. nothing works. lol. and i know it's probably some stupid little thing too. the ultimate goal: set a cooking with the file in the subdirectory that can be accessed when called from any file in the domain. Thank you sooooooo much. How did you people get so good at PHP? I've read the manuals and online tutorials like crazy and I STILL suck at it and I can tell I will never "master" it. lol. I haven't even TOUCHED mysql yet. I'll wait a few years for that one! -mark __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.
