On my website, I use cookies. I've put in the script as you should like this:
setcookie.php
[PHP]<?php setcookie( "login","IN",time()+36000);?> [/PHP]
Then to recall it:
getcookie.php
[PHP]<?php
if ($_COOKIE['login'] == "IN")
{
$msg = 'Logged in';
}
elseif ($_COOKIE['login'] != "IN")
{
$msg = 'Not logged in';
}
else
{
$msg = 'Error';
}
?> [/PHP]

I think this is the right script, but it doesn't set the cookie, even though I've changed browser settings to accept all cookies, and other sites can set cookies, I think it's the script,

Thanks very much,
George Sephton

try:

[PHP]$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['login'][/PHP]

you must set the cookie at the very top of the document, before the header information is sent to the browser (before the document type definition). Otherwise, the accessing page must be loaded after the cookie has already been set in order to retrieve it.
