Here's the way I check: -Set a cookie on the user's machine. I name mine sessionid. -Redirect to a new page using header("location: acceptcookies.php"); -On the new page, check to see if the variable has a value. For example, I would check to see if $sessionid=="" and if it's true then their machine didn't accept the cookie (or the cookie was set with a blank value). If it's false then the cookie was set correctly. Hope this helps. -Angela >anyone have a good method or code snippet to check if >the user is accepting cookies? > >Thanks > >luis > >__________________________________________________ >Do You Yahoo!? >Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
