Cookie

Still trying to get the cookie to work in my site for automatic login capabilities. It has it's moments of greatness, before fading into the shadows again. Most recently, I downloaded Netscape 6.2.1 to test my site, and when I did not allow the password manager to save my login, it has since refused to allow my cookie to be set, even when I unblocked cookies for the site in the Netscape preferences. So, in light of that, I tried to set the cookie on a page in the directory above the login page, in hopes that I could get around the Netscape problem, and, of course, this stopped IE 6 from reading the cookie. Now, neither browser is working correctly. I am already resigned to the fact that I will not try to support users of versions 4 and below in regards to cookies, however I do need to get the more recent versions working. Is it true that when you set a cookie, it is valid only in that directory or domain? Will it be retrieved in subfolders of that directory? Do I require special code to allow it to be accessed in subfolders? Steve Osborne Database Programmer Chinook Multimedia Inc. s.osborne@chinookmultimedia.com
