note 72830 added to function.time

Tested in PHP 4.4.4: Take a look at these few rows. <?php $expire = time()+60*60*24*30; setcookie('c_name', 'c_value', $expire, '/'); ?> <?php $expire = mktime()+60*60*24*30; setcookie('c_name', 'c_value', $expire, '/'); ?> <?php setcookie('c_name', 'c_value', mktime()+60*60*24*30, '/'); ?> <?php setcookie('c_name', 'c_value', time()+60*60*24*30, '/'); ?> At first sight they look the same, or at least leading to the same results. But not everything is what it looks like. Try it for yourself. The first 3 examples create the perfect cookie... Just the way we want it: expiring in 30 days. But the fourth... results in cookies having exp. date somewhere in 2020.
