NULL is a value, so don't enclose it in quotes or anything. Just like this: setcookie("time_visited", date('m/D/Y'), NULL, "/", ".domain.net", 0); if it still gives you trouble, everything after name is optional. Worst case scenario, just put the name and the value -- leave the rest off. setcookie("time_visited", date('m/D/Y')); [/quote] thanks mate it work great now, oh just one more thing how would i dispaly the username which i have logged in has cheers

I think it's two double quotes with nothing in the middle. If that doesn't work, try the word NULL -- but I don't think NULL works. so: setcookie("time_visited", date('m/D/Y'), "", "/", ".domain.net", 0); or (not likely) setcookie("time_visited", date('m/D/Y'), NULL, "/", ".domain.net", 0); [/quote] now it come up with the other problem Warning: setcookie() expects parameter 3 to be long :@

[/quote] thanks , but what i want to do is have the cookie deleted when the browser closes thanks for all ya help

[/quote] thanks it ok now but now it aint setting the cookie this is what i enter to solve the other problem setcookie("cookie", $username, time(), "/", ".domain.net", 0); but i looked in the cookie folder of the broswer and there aint a cookie there for my domain but if i run the test.php with this bit of code it sets the cookie ------test.php---------- <? setcookie("time_visited", date('m/D/Y'), time()+14400, "/", ".domain.net", 0); ?> any ideas thanks :@

The second scenario has you going to a subdomain (go.domain.com) if that is the case then perhaps the server will not allow session cookies to traverse domains/subdomains. [/quote] the url are posted correctly,is there any way of solving this problem

hi i am having a bit of a problem with sessions, if i have the protected page has [a href=\"http://www.domain.com/web/protectedpage.php\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.domain.com/web/protectedpage.php[/a] it goes [a href=\"http://www.domain.com/web/security/members/?sec=login\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.domain.com/web/security/members/?sec=login[/a] if session username aint there,once logged in it show welcome username etc which is great. but ........ if the prottected page is [a href=\"http://www.domain.com/support/members/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.domain.com/support/members/[/a] and it goes to [a href=\"http://go.domain.com/web/security/members/?sec=login\" target=\"_blank\"]http://go.domain.com/web/security/members/?sec=login[/a] once i submit the form it goes back to the index page but still say welcome guest instead of welcome username etc and when i access the protected page again to goes back to the login page any ideas why this might be happening thanks
