Hi,

I am working on a script that uses cookie to store some info on the client
side.  The user will click a link that contains info about where the link
was placed. The script will then store that info so that when the user
returns later and makes a purchase, I can see where they came from.

The problem I am having is this:

The link is a redirect url that first goes to one domain where the cookie is
created by. Then they are taken to the site where products are sold.

Then, after they make a purchase, they are taken to a thank you page that
has a hidden tracker to track that sale.

<img src=http://trackerurl.com/?var=1&var=2&blahbla height=0 width=>

The image loads the script from a different domain (where the cookie was
initialy created by).  The problem now is that the script gets a blank
cookie when using the hidden image to load the script.

So does anyone know why this is happening?

I have   setCookie('CookieName', $value, $expires);

Then I try to retrieve that cookie again later with  $_COOKIE['CookieName']
... but the value stored is not there when the script is called from the
hidden image.  HOWEVER, the value is there when the script is called
directly.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!

Nicole
