PHP version 4.3.3 on Windows NT WIN406 5.0. I got the cookies to set after I got rid of the header line. This needs to be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-05-24 01:00:03] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

However due to the presence of a header function immediately after the setcookie call, the setcookie function fails to set the cookie. I was using the header function as a means of redirection. I managed to solve the problrm using a meta refresh but am intrifued as to why setcookie failed to perform its role. I've checked the return value for setcookie, it returns a "true" value. Reproduce code: --------------- if(empty($_COOKIE['id']){ //set cookie for 24 hours setcookie("id",123,time()+60*60*24); header("Location: redirpage.php"); }else{ header("Location: mainpage.php"); } Expected result: ---------------- After checking for the cookie and setting it the code should redirect to redirpage.php. It redirects alright, but does not set the cookie. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28409&edit=1
