Bug description: setcookie not accepting expire parameter
Description:
------------
setcookie not accepting the expire parameter no matter how I configure it.
ie:
setcookie("user","$info",time()+30000);
OR
$ntime = time();
setcookie("user","$info",$ntime()+30000);
OR
$expire = time() + 300000;
setcookie("user","$info",$expire);
In each one of the above examples, the cookie IS set, but ends with
session.
