Note Submitter: simon at go4 dot com dot au ---- For some reason setting a cookie path without a domain does not appear to work, eg. <?php setcookie('cookieName', 'cookieValue', time()+3600, '/'); ?> The path remains the default; 'The default value is the current directory that the cookie is being set in'. So you cannot access the cookie from outside that sub-directory. However if you set the cookie with a blank domain, eg. <?php setcookie('cookieName', 'cookieValue', time()+3600, '/', false); ?> Then the path override will work and you can access it from any path in the domain using the code in the above example ('/'). NOTE: setting the domain to false will cause it to be filled with the default value.
