setting and retrieving cookie values

[Anon]

Hi,
I'm going through the tutorial at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php and not able to see any results displayed .Would appreciate suggestions or remarks as to what I'm doing wrong.

Since cookies will not become visible until the next loading of a page I comment parts to see if that makes a difference.

1 method:
<?PHP

//$value = "1234"; //or
//setcookie ("cookie", "1234"/$value/);
if (isset ($cookie)) {
while (list ($name, $value) = each ($cookie)) {
echo "$name == $value<br>\n";
}
}
?>

2 Method:
<?php
//$value = "1234"; //or
//setcookie ("cookie", "1234"/$value/);

   echo $cookie;
   echo $_COOKIE["cookie"];
?>

neither one works?
When I try

setcookie("cookie", "1234");

echo $cookie;
echo $_COOKIE["cookie"];

it works just fine. They both print the same thing on the page. - 12341234

you can use:
$value = "1234";
setcookie("cookie",$value);

to do the same thing....

Tried that.
Made sure that cookies were enabled and the feature "warn me before cookies accepted was enabled" on Netscape.

Any other suggestions?

in your php.ini file, make sure

"register_globals" = On
"session.use_cookies" = 1
"session.cookie_lifetime" = 0 // 0 means until browser is restarted
"session.cookie_path" = /

these are my configurations.....hope this helps...

The problem was an empty line above <?php.........
