2004-05-06 Thread Ingo Weiss
Hi all, I am experiencing a problem that appears to be caused by a cookie not being set, but so far it occurs only on a couple of IE/MacOS 9 machines. I am assuming that if I set the cookie preferences in IE to always accept cookies should work. What else could prevent a cookie from being set? A
