What happens is that the calls seem to produce no output (but they don't fail). In other words, require() returns true, but the data that I wanted common.php to display doesn't end up being displayed.
As to whether common.inc was able to actually receive the cookies, I haven't the foggiest idea, and there's no way to tell if I can't get it to output anything.
Thanks,
Luke

However, then in the script I have a require tag (essentially like
require('http://www.mydomain.com/common.php')) line. I call this line,

variables such as $cookiename are all blank. I cannot figure out for the
life of me why this is occuring.
The most likely scenario is that common.php is being processed by the web server & PHP before being included into your code. This would be causing a second HTTP request from your web server to your web server for the included code ... there are no cookies on the HTTP request for the included code, /and/ the variables available to the parent are not available to the included code. You effectivly get the output of common.php, not included code.Try this: - copy common.php to common.inc (or some other extension that your web server is not configured to hand off to be parsed by PHP). - in the parent code, include() the common.inc URL instead of the common.php URL. Let us know if that helps or not. g.luck, ~Chris
