Session Cookie Lifetime

I'm unable to get session cookies to persist longer then the lifetime of the browser I'm using PHP-4.0b3 (downloaded from the php site 1 week ago) In php.ini, I've set session lifetime to 86400 seconds, even restarted the webserver.. but the browser still reports cookie lifetime to "End Of Session" What else can I try?
