The 3rd parameter is an optional time to expire parameter, if you don't want to set
it, leave it out. setcookie(cookiename,"value"); works fine

Subject: [PHP] Can't set a cookie?
Hi Everyone,
Any idea why I'm getting this error?
Warning: setcookie() expects parameter 3 to be long, string given in *my
script* on line 2
Here's the entire script generating the error:
<?php
setcookie("mytest", 1, "", "/");
?>
The script doesn't work on a new hosting service I subscribed to, but it
works on two other servers - 1 linux and 1 windows, both with Apache 1.3.24.
I'm looking for what version the hosting service is using... their support
page says "PHP4 with Zend Optimizer". The other two servers are using PHP
4.1.1.
Any ideas of what's going on?
-Ed
