setcookie

[dhem]

I cannot send a cookie using setcookie. I'm using Win2000 en PHP version 4.2.3. The same code is working perfect on my Windows XP machine and Linux server.

The code:

//Get data from mySQL db
$cookieData = $data->userFirstName . " " . $data->userLastName;
//Set cookie
setcookie("username",$cookieData,0,"/");

how do you know it's not working?

If found the problem in the mean time.

There is a bug in PHP running under Win2000 Server. If you try to set a cookie in a page that is not producing any output the cookie isn't set.

Apparently this is an old bug still not resolved.
