[SOLVED] Cookie not working in Internet Explorer

[Thomisback]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to set some cookies in PHP, in firefox it works perfectly but in Internet Explorer it just creates a loop.

This is my code:

$check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM phaos_users WHERE UID='$userid'") or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($check)){
$PHP_PHAOS_USER = $row['username'];
}


$PHP_PHAOS_MD5PW = md5($userid);
setcookie("PHP_PHAOS_USER",$PHP_PHAOS_USER,time()+17280000); // ( REMEMBERS USER NAME FOR 200 DAYS )
   	   	   setcookie("PHP_PHAOS_MD5PW",$PHP_PHAOS_MD5PW,time()+172800); // ( REMEMBERS USER PASSWORD FOR 2 DAYS )
    	   setcookie('lang',$lang,time()+17280000); // ( REMEMBERS LANGUAGE FOR 200 DAYS )
           setcookie("PHP_PHAOS_PW",0,time()-3600); // remove cookie used in version 0.88
	$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM phaos_characters WHERE username = '$PHP_PHAOS_USER'");
	if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
		$PHP_PHAOS_CHARID	= $row['id'];
		$PHP_PHAOS_CHAR		= $row['name'];
	} else {
		$PHP_PHAOS_CHARID=0;
	}

but in Internet Explorer it just creates a loop.

 

PHP has no idea what a browser is let alone has the ability to run code differently depending on browser. Explain what exactly you meen by IE creates a loop?

Well, my code tries to sets cookies and goes to the members area but if there is no cookie it will try to set them again.
