RE: [PHP-WIN] trouble with cookies

Good point. That could be it. Although for the domain you specified, if you do want to specify the root as the domain, simply use "/" (and maybe you can leave this empty, I'd have to double-check). I don't know what ".." will produce as a result, but I know that setting "/" as a domain does work.
