Thomas/All,

To summarize, my code containing cookies running on windows with a working
php installation (and Apache) executed all scripts containing cookies
perfectly. However, I transitioned my code to a Linux box with a fresh
install of PHP and now my cookies aren't working.  Below is an example of
setting and writing cookie values from one script.  Again, everything worked
like a charm on my old machine.  That's why I think it has something to do
with the Apache or PHP installation settings.

Note - on the new PHP installation I've had to change the "register_global"
switch to "on" in my php.ini file to get my code working.  Now the cookies
don't work...

Please, please help! 



===================== SET value of cookie =============
setcookie ("showpoll_ck", "$ID"); // set cookie to show poll answers
header ('Location: '.$PHP_SELF);
===================== SET value of cookie =============



===================== WRITE value of cookie =============
<?php 
echo '<p>';                                                     
if ($showpoll_ck == "$ID") {
echo '<font color="blue"><b><div align="center">Thank you for your vote.
Results:</div></b></font>';
        }

echo '</p>';
?>
===================== WRITE value of cookie =============


** PS, I also tried $_COOKIE['showpoll_ck'] when writing value...that
doesn't make a difference, that's why I think it's something with the
install.

Yeah, tell HOW you set the cookies.
There is really no difference in linux/windows-php in this cases.
