Re: register_globals setting

Cynic - I did not quite explain it clearly. Let's say I have two pages: Sender and Receiver. On the Receiver page I have $pu_ssn = $HTTP_GET_VARS[pu_ssn]; setcookie("ssn", $pu_ssn, time() + (60 * 60 * 24 * 30)); So far, so good. Now I have two ways of "sending" the data: 1) Use the conventional <Form Ation="Receiver.php" Method="Post" Name="SubmitExam"> with the Submit button. This works. That is, a cookie is set from the Receiver page. 2) Use a socket to send the data. The surfer never presses a button - the PHP code sends the data. When I use this method, the data *is* sent *but* the cookie is *not* set. *And* no error messages. Todd -- Todd Cary Ariste Software todd@aristesoftware.com
