cookies

[Anon]

I need some help here. I'm trying to set a cookie but it won't do it. Here is my code:

setcookie("username",$username,time()+14400,"/","bige.phpwebhosting.com/htmlhelp",0);

The page loads OK but the cookie isn't sent.

That's because "bige.phpwebhosting.com/htmlhelp" is
not a valid domain name. If you really <i>do</i> want
to restrict the cookie to 'htmlhelp' (and it's a directory!)
then move that to the path argument:

setcookie('username',$username,time()+14400,'/htmlhelp', 'bige.phpwebhosting.com',0);

Thanks!
