Cannot setCookie

[Techissue2008]

Hi

I use windows 2000 professional.

<? session_start();
ini_set("session.gc_maxlifetime", "3000");
$year10 = time() + 3600 * 24 * 365 * 10;
setcookie("abc", "", $year10, "/", "localhost", 0);
setcookie("abc", "100", $year10, "/", "localhost", 0);
?>

In another page
<?php
  echo "<br> a ->".$abc;
  echo "<br> b ->".$_COOKIE["abc"];
  echo "<br> c ->".$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["abc"];
?>

All does not have values.

I cannot find the cookie abc in the Temporary Internet Files folder.

How should I fix it?

What happens if you get rid of the last two parameters of the setcookie() call? Also, why are you calling it twice with the same cookie name?

On the off chance that short_open_tag is not enabled, you might want to use "<?php" instead of "<?" in the first piece of code.
