[RESOLVED] Session variables

[bluetonic]

I am having trouble with my session variable. Here is my code for startsession.php

<?php
  session_start();

  // If the session vars aren't set, try to set them with a cookie
  if (!isset($_SESSION['member_id'])) {
    if (isset($_COOKIE['member_id']) && isset($_COOKIE['member_name'])) {
      $_SESSION['member_id'] = $_COOKIE['member_id'];
      $_SESSION['member_name'] = $_COOKIE['member_name'];
    } 
  }
  echo $_SESSION['member_name'];
  echo $_COOKIE['member_name'];
?>

When I echo out the variables, everything works except the $_COOKIE['member_name'];
If i sign in as 'name,' the echo returns 'name and
Notice: Undefined index: member_name in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/startsession.php on line 12

Any ideas why? Could this be a setting somewhere?
