Note Submitter: treeml at itree dot org ---- If the server time is not properly set, e.g(it is behind the client time). Excution of the following code session_set_cookie_params(2000); session_start(); will NOT set/send cookie to Internet Explorer 6.0, even though it will set the cookie on Mozilla/Firebird browser. But the cookie will get set without the session_set_cookie_params(); Same holds true for following code, $expiry = 60*30; session_start(); setcookie(session_name(),session_id(), time()+$expiry, "/"); For some reason IE is really sensitive to cookie times. It won't even accept the cookie!! This took me quite a while to figureout, for I thoguht it was an IE cookie security issue.
