Can't get a cookie to set. Below is the code near the file top BEFORE any html output. $_POST['prefs'] comes from a hidden field in the middle of the html output. $_POST['filter'] comes from a select option. A Submit button closes the page and refreshes it. print_r($_POST) shows $_POST['prefs'] $_POST['prefs'] are just as I expect when the page refreshes. ## code print_r($_POST) session_start(); print_r($_COOKIE); if(isset($_POST['prefs'])) $cookie= setcookie("listpref", $_POST['filter'], time()+7776000); var_dump($cookie) shows bool TRUE I added the session_start() as a test. print_r($_COOKIE) shows the session ID cookie works just fine. IE6 and Firefox don't record the regular cookie. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
