setting cookies...?

[Anon]

I'm trying to set a cookie with a PHP script, but it won't set for some reason. The code works fine on the web server that I host my site, but not on this test NT workstation running Apache.

Is there some configuration setting we need to do?

here's the actual code I'm using:
setcookie("user",$login_id,time()+243200);

any help would be appreciated

Are you trying to read the cookie from a different domain to setting it? (cookies are only sent to the domains that set them, unless you speicify a domain). You sure it's not setting them, and maybe just not reading them? Cookies turned on in your browser?

Can't think what else it could be, so if that doesn't help... sorry!

Whan I changed my system to a NT server I had a problem like this. So I discovered in my NT system (only in it) the cookies do not work if I use header("Location: blabla.php");

I changed to a meta refresh and all my cookies begin to work. If you are using Location try change, may be this problem too.
