There is something that the php manual does not explain very well, the lifetime of the cookie is not
the sum of time() + whatever you want. It should be whatever you want:
CORRECT:
$life = 60 * 60 * 24 * 30; // 30 days
WRONG:
$life = time() + (60 * 60 * 24 * 30);
==============================
Sir, according to the manual here: http://sg.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php,
the correct syntax is indeed time()+seconds.
The lifetime is determined as the number of seconds passed since the Unix Epoch.
Therefore, time()+60*60*24*30 is correct.
