Sorry. My emails is acting wierd. This is a repost. The suggestion was there is a
clock problem. My clock is right. Could it be cause by a time zone difference?
original message -
I have set up a user login so that it will assign a cookie for one hour -
setcookie("cookie_id", $id, time()+3600);
The manner in which i suse the expiration is copied form the manual but i have
actually tried several alteratives. The problem is the expiration works perfectly
locally (i am running apache 1.3 for windows) but once i upload it (linux red hat 5.2
(why so old i dont know)/ apache 1.3.19.) The expiration will not work on my
browser(s) unless i increase the expiration to +5000 or above. My client tests it
using the same version of IE i have and it will not set the cookie still at +5000 for
him.
Now i understand from browser to browser there can be differences but why can i set a
cookie for +200 locally but not for less than +5000 uploaded when i am most certainly
checking it with the same browser (IE 5.5)
