As noted in the reactions below there are some characters that WILL break your cookie when used in a
name for a value. In PHP 4.3.8 a period (.) will cause the cookie value to be ignored. When your
cookie fails for no apparent reason, try changing the names of the cookie values you store to
alphabethic characters only.
Hope this saves someone the time I spent on debugging this. I was just thinking that this problem
MIGHT be related to the fact that we're using UTF-8 as internal encoding for PHP. Could anyone
comment on this?
