Not to sound offensive, have you actually tried it?

I've pasted exactly what you just sent back to me, and it wont go.

There have been many comments in the newsgroups and the function page itself about 
this issue ...

people are having to put quotations around the time aspect in order to get it to work 
at all, and according to you, that would set the value to zero right?

-> cookie.php 

<?php

       setcookie ('CookieName', 'CookieValue', time()+7200);
       header ("Location: cookie2.php");
        
?>   

-> cookie2.php

<?php

        $cookie = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[CookieName];
        echo $cookie;
        
?>

that's exactly the test script i'm using. 

Is there anything wrong with the above?

setcookie ('CookieName', 'CookieValue', time()+7200);
works. If not you're doing something wrong.

Setting a pre-defined value for the time aspect works, however ... just to let you 
guys know, if you put 

setcookie ($mycookie, $myvalue, time()+7200);

on my box, and several others that we use, it wont set that cookie!!

fyi :)

thanks for your help

yes there are quotes in the line.

If you remove the quotes, the cookie doesn't initialize at all. Should we be assigning 
a variable there instead for example :

$mytime = time() + 7200;

setcookie ("coookiename", "cookievalue", $mytime); ?

There have been tones of posts in your setcookie function information about the cookie 
not working at all if you do not put the "" in there.
