sorry, I was wrong ...
all the $session in my previous post should be $cookie... (I typed the wrong
word)
I think the domain is not the one that cause the problem...
remember that I refer to the same page (but sometimes success and the other
time it's fail)
What did u mean by "unless you use the right parameters in setcookie()"
Please more detail (I want to know if I miss something in setcookie
parameter)..
Thanx a lot
Flame
