It shows me allways that "I've seen this site 1 time". If I take out part "time()+10" it works perfect. What to try now? Afan --------------------------- afan wrote: I'm trying set cookie. I use small script I found in book "Professional PHP programming" writen by Jesus, Harishm, Sascha, Chris and Deepak. This is a script: <?php$count++;setcookie("count", $count);?>You have seen this site $count times! and script works fine. Everytime I refresh page I get next number (1, 2, 3, 4...) But, when I try to put expiration it doesn't work anymore - I get alway number 1: <?php$count++;setcookie("count", $count, time() + 10);// I put 10 sec only - easy to see when cookie expires.?>You have seen this site $count times! What I'm doing wrong? Well, not to say you're doing anything wrong... BUT here's a script that works (a slight restructuring around HTML, and adding an <? echo... ?> statement around the $count variable in the page display... try this and see if it works for you... Also, make sure you actually wait the full 10 seconds before reloading to check if the expiration is working. **** My Cookie Test **** <?php $count++; setcookie("count", $count, time() + 10); ?> <html> <head> <title>Cookie Test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <p><b>Cookie Test</b></p> <p>You have seen this site <? echo $count; ?> times!</p> <p><? echo time(); ?></p> <p>What is the result???</p> </body> </html> **** End of Cookie Test **** Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
