Re: Cookie Not Setting..

Some things to keep in mind: 1. The cookie can't be read untill the next time you access a page. 2. The cookie can only be red in the same level as it is set (I guess), that means that if you set a cookie in "/my/pages/index.php" you can't read the cookie from a page in "/my/index.php". 3. To really see if the cookie is set you can use Netscape and let it warn you before accepting a cookie, in that way you will see the cookiename and it's value and then you can be sure the cookie is set. 4. You can do the same thing with IE. /Magnus Hammar - The cookiemonster? =) -------------------------------------- > Still no luck.
