try using this:
setcookie ( "uid", $pid, time()+3600 );
I've removed the "" from the variable, so it should use its value. I have
also added a time feature. The time option is done in 'seconds since Jan 1st
1970. The time() feature gives you the current time in seconds from that
date. I then put +3600 on the end, so it adds 3600 seconds, or 1 hour
60 seconds per minute
60 minutes per hour
60 * 60
3600
Hope this solves your problem
Stephen
