[PHP] Cookie Not Setting..
Ok, I've used cookies before and have never had a problem with them but for some reason this doesn't seem to be setting! Here is the start of the file called after logging in to my site. In another file I have echo $wwblCookie and have also tried echo $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["wwblCookie"] but no luck.

Actually, nevermind. I got it. I was calling a function and sent the variable with the function so it worked :) - Original Message - From: "Jeff Lewis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Magnus Hammar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 11, 2001 9:38 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] Cookie Not Setting.. > Still no luck.

Re: [PHP] Cookie Not Setting..
Some things to keep in mind: 1. The cookie can't be read untill the next time you access a page. 2. The cookie can only be red in the same level as it is set (I guess), that means that if you set a cookie in "/my/pages/index.php" you can't read the cookie from a page in "/my/index.php". 3. To really see if the cookie is set you can use Netscape and let it warn you before accepting a cookie, in that way you will see the cookiename and it's value and then you can be sure the cookie is set. 4. You can do the same thing with IE. /Magnus Hammar - The cookiemonster? =) -- > Still no luck.
