I'm trying the following code. A user logs in, his details passed on to this script. If ok, he gets sent back to main page after cookie has been created. Otherwise he gets an error message. The user authentication works fine, but I'm not getting any cookie created...
<? SetCookie ("customer",$user,time()+864000); ?>
<HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>
<?
mysql_connect("localhost","username","password") or DIE("unable to connect to database");
mysql_select_db("dbname") or die("unable to select database");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM customer WHERE userid='$user' AND password='$password' ");
if ($row = mysql_numrows($result)) {
echo "<A href=http://www.site.com/menubar-test.php>Click Here!</A>";
}
else {
SetCookie("customer");
echo "
<HEAD>
<STYLE TYPE='text/css'>
<!--
@import url(http://www.site.com/css/css_index.css);

</HEAD>

exit; }
?>
