Care to post the offending 'line 19' ?? 🙂

Without even seeing the code I would hazard a guest that is something to do with date / time :p

Sorri, here is the code... 🙂
if (($POST["username"] == $name[0]) && ($POST["password"] == $pass[0])) {
$date = getdate();
$str_ulogin = "$date[mday] $date[mon]";
$str_ulogin = implode("", unpack("H", $str_ulogin));
$r1 = mt_rand(0,9) . mt_rand(0,9);
$r2 = mt_rand(0,9) . mt_rand(0,9);
$r3 = mt_rand(0,9) . mt_rand(0,9);
preg_match("/^{(.{2})(.{2})(.{2})(.}?)$/", $str_ulogin, $reg);
$str_ulogin = $reg[1] . $r1 . $reg[2] . $r2 . $reg[3] . $r3 . $reg[4];
setcookie("alogin",$str_ulogin,"");
header("Location: http://localhost/admin/admin.php");
exit;
}

Hi.

boolean setcookie ( string name [, string value [, int expire [, string path [, string domain [, int secure]]]]] )

"" = string

Try...

setcookie( 'alogin', $str_ulogin );

...which is Icelandian for "leave off the expiry if you want a perma-cookie...don't set it to null"...

Intenz, is, well Intensely accurate...

and that's cool with me!!
