The Cookie Factor - with or without choci chips??

Hi,

I am trying to use SetCookie to post information between two domains unfortunetly I can not get it to work on the one yet. I can not get it to work with any other parameters other than the name and value.

Although I am not sure if this workinf correctly. I have spent some time working out whether it works properly or not but only managing to achieve a large pulsating headache.

Nutscape seems to work and IE doesn't. Any ideas would be hugely appreciated.

try this

SetCookie("SessionId",$cartID,time()+2592000);

the only bit after that is the path and domain and some secure thing (which I'm not sure about), if you want to include more info like the time or whatever if you repeat the SetCookie with different variables in it and sit will make one big cookie for you

eg

$cartID = md5(uniqid(rand()));
$time = mktime();
SetCookie("SessionId",$cartID,time()+2592000);
SetCookie("SessionIdTime",$time,time()+2592000);

will generate this as a cookie...

SessionIdTime
948815550
whatever URL and path/
0
667529984
29327071
381841344
29321036
*
SessionId
735f83820533a26431f2817140b878d0
whatever URL and path/
0
667529984
29327071
382041344
29321036
*

you cvan then call either SessionId or SessionIdTime in your next page

hope it helps
