But this doesn't seem to work. My question is: Is it possible to set one cookie for IE and another for Firefox so that, depending on which browser is used, I can tell who is connecting to the blog?

I would still opt for the login though, even if not secure. -- Thanks! -Shawn http://www.spidean.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
