cookie being set but not received without 'www'

[smerny]

When I check my cookies, I have the right cookies under the URL www.example.com, BUT when I go to access my site, the 'www' is not always there (example.com) and when this is the case it does not pick up the cookies....

 

how can I fix this?

could you post your cookie on the line that you use to set it so that I can see if I know what the problem is..

i mentioned how they are stored

 

setcookie("display", $display, time()+60*60*24*365);

[public-image]

setcookie("display", $display, time()+60*60*24*365, ".yoursite.com", "");

 

see if that helps

now it shows up if i go to mysite.com, but not if i go to www.mysite.com

[public-image]

setcookie("display", $display, time()+60*60*24*365, "/", "");

 

I use something like the above with the / but that has the with and without www. too

although if you have cpanel access on your site im sure your allowed to permit whether everyone entering must have www. or not im sure its a feature.
