Cookies won't set expiration.

[BriceH]

I set a cookie using the following code:

 

setcookie("sample_cookie", "1", time()+60*60*24*365);

 

When I view the cookie, it says that it expires at the end of the session. Do you know what the problem is? I've tried it in both Safari and Firefox.

There is nothing wrong with the posted statement and it works in FF.

 

Best guess is that you are looking at an old existing cookie that has already expired and that the setcookie() statement you posted is not being executed or is not sending the cookie due to a header error.
