If you just echo $userid you will get the results.
do this
setcookie ("cookie_variable", "chocalate chip", 1, "", "", 1);
echo $cookie_variable
You can name the cookie_variable whatever you want and that will be referenced
as the variable to store "chocalate chip".
Now if you want to see the value from within a function you will need to also do
this:
global $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;
this will enable you to see the values stored in the cookies.
