save below as testcookie.php, request it from your browser twice, what

I'm having problems with a customer who can't login to a wholesaler
application.  To ensure the problem was that the cookie was not being
set, I sent him to this script:

if( !isset( $_REQUEST['page'] ) ) {
setcookie('VATtest','Cookie has been set.',time()+50000, "/");
echo '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?page=1">Test cookie.</a>';
} else if( $_REQUEST['page'] == '1' ) {
if( isset( $_COOKIE['VATtest'] ) ) {
  echo $_COOKIE['VATtest'];
} else {
  echo 'Cookie NOT set.';
}
}
?>


He got "Cookie NOT set." which means exactly what it says.  He's using
IE 6.0, and swears up and down that he's set it to always allow
cookies from this domain.  I can't verify that he's set it correctly,
but he has been told twice how to do it.  I also know his browser must
be saving some cookies, as he is able to login to other sites.  Has
anyone run into other sources of cookie-blockage in the past?  I
cannot manage to duplicate this when I have IE set to always allow
cookies from this domain.

Thanks for any tips,

Request from MY browser?  I get

array(2) { ["sessioncookie"]=> string(1) "1" ["storedcookie"]=> string(1) "1" }

This isn't a problem in my browser, however. I don't want to keep sending this customer to random scripts, so can you explain the point of this script? I mean, in what way might this help me figure out why his browser is not setting a cookie?


thanks,
