Cookie Problem

[SP8600]

Hi, does anyone have any idea why this is not working correctly

<?php
if (!isset($_COOKIE['clients_id']) || empty($_COOKIE['clients_id']))
{ ?>

Even if the cookie is set it still shows the content of that IF statement and not the ELSE.

What happens with a simple

if($_COOKIE['clients_id']) {//??? hmmm??}

or
echo $_COOKIE['clients_id'];

The full code is below. I can echo the values of the cookie but can not use them in the IF and ELSE statement.

<?php
if (!isset($_COOKIE['clients_id']) || empty($_COOKIE['clients_id']))
{ ?>

<form method="post" action="<?php echo("$url"); ?>/clients_log_action.php?log_action=login"><table width="499" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="90" class="maintext">Username:</td>
    <td width="10">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="399"><input name="username" type="text" size="30" class="maintext"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width="499" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="90" class="maintext">Password:</td>
    <td width="10">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="399"><input name="password" type="password" size="30" class="maintext"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
  <table width="499" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr> 
      <td width="90">&nbsp;</td>
      <td width="10">&nbsp;</td>
      <td width="84"><div align="right">
          <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" class="maintext">
        </div></td>
      <td width="10">&nbsp;</td>
      <td width="85"><input type="reset" name="Reset" value="Reset" class="maintext"></td>
      <td width="220">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>

<?php
}
else {echo("Test");}

?>

I done it now, all i had to delete was a bit off the IF statement.

if (!isset($_COOKIE['clients_id']) || empty($_COOKIE['clients_id']))

if (empty($_COOKIE['clients_id']))
