Re: Apache, PHP, Windows XP, MSIE 6, Cheese, and Cookies.

Yea, I got a solution. Choose a flavor of linux, format your HD, install, and run the that server like it was meant to run. Apache is not even 100% on NT much less the XP beta, it's like your running a beta on a beta...That's why it's not working. Here is a good quote from apache.org: "Please note that at this time, Windows support is entirely experimental, and is recommended only for experienced users." :) I'm not trying to be a linux zealot, but you will encounter more strange problems like this on windows...

Hey, I'm new to the list, and this issue may have already been addressed... It seems that with Apache and PHP (running in Windows XP Beta 2, which identifies to Apache as an NT system) as the server and being accessed by MSIE 6.0b or MSIE 5.5 that cheese doesn't taste right. No, wait, that's not the issue. The issue is that unless the page is what the browser opens with (ex: desktop shortcut, address bar request, being set as the browser's "home" -- anything where no page, not even the "Action cancelled." page, is opened) the cookies I setcookie() are saved as session cookies (yo know, not saved in a file), whereas if it's the first page the browser opens, they're saved in the Cookies folder where they're supposed to go, as a bona fide file. Is there a solution to this issue yet? Has anyone else noticed it? :)
