Bug description: setcookie bug (Cookie is destroyed/Inaccessible)
The problem is simple, in the older versions of php, you could set a cookie
and have it available for your specified amount of time from any browser
window open.
The line was as follows :
setcookie ("myCookie","Blah","time()+7201");
The cookie should be set for just over 2 hours.
In 4.0.6, If you set the cookie, the time you set is never actually used,
and the cookie is destroyed immediately after you close the browser window.
Another downside, you cannot access this cookie from another window even if
the original window is open. this sounds like an exclusive window session
is linked to that cookie, and once the uplink is dropped, so is the
cookie.
To access the cookie, i've been using :
$mycookie = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[myCookie];
it will show up in the original window, but not in others.
at all!
what's up?! :)
