cookies not set or empty

skeppens

Hi,

I am trying to implement a mail treating part via PHP, but I am not that successful. My first go was using session variables but when putting by my host it didn't work anymore.

So now I am trying it via Cookies. But for some reason the cookies set on Page1 are not available on any other page. I even think they are just not set. ( I tried it with $_COOKIES and
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS with short and full cookies)

Underneath you find a part of my code for page1 and page2.
Can some one help?

File 1:
..

<?	setcookie("A","$user","/","Mydomain");
	setcookie("B","$host","/","Mydomain");
	setcookie("C","$password","/","Mydomain");

// redirect user to page2
header("Location: file2.php");
?>

File 2:

<?php

$username = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['A'];
$host = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['C'];
$password = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['B'];
?>

<html>
<head> test cookie </head>

    

	    <?echo "AAA:  $host      \n";  ?>
	   <?echo "BBB: $username     \n";  ?>
	  <?echo "CCC:  $password    \n";  ?>

</body>
</html>

OUTPUT ON SCREEN :

AAA: BBB: CCCC:

hi-liter

<?php
echo("

AAA: $_COOKIE[A]
<br>BBB: $_COOKIE[B]
<br>CCC: $_COOKIE[C]
");

?>

edit:

http://us4.php.net/variables.predefined

register_globals being set to OFF for good reason, need to use these predefined variables

This results in the same output
AAA:
BBB:
CCC:
