For many this may be obvious but for those, like me, who have never had this problem before I hope
it saves them many hours head scratching.
I spent several hours trying to work out why a cookie that had been working for 6 months suddenly
stopped working on some browsers.
The setcookie I had was:
setcookie("custid",$id, time()+315360000, "/", "domname.com");
It appears the problem was with the domain name part and to work on some browsers a '.' is
required in front of the domain name ie:
setcookie("custid",$id, time()+315360000, "/", ".domname.com");
