Re: CGI Cookies...

Ahh, I found it...

cookie (-name => "session_id",
    -value => $sess_ref->session_id(),
    #-path => url (-absolute => 1),  completely Removed this
    -domain => ".domain.com",
    -expires => "+1y"
);
[download]

Before I had just kept modifying the -path, this time I removed the whole line, and it worked.

thx,
Richard

Set your path to '/', I say this because i've often had probs with Netscape 4 not setting the cookie if there wasn't a path at all. I've also had problems with the evil browser from redmond refusing to set cookies when I don't specify the entire domain. (i.e. leaving off the www) I get around this by setting domain to `$ENV{HTTP_HOST}` Hope that helps Chris Lobster Aliens Are attacking the world!	[reply] [d/l]
