in thread cookie expire question

BTW, writing-style note -- don't give references to years in things that should be long-lasting. Everything you said in that article still applies just as well (or better, with cell browsers, and the larger number of minor-player browers) to the world today... except for "that lasts until year 2003". I had to go check the date on the article, because it /is/ the year 2003. (I would have said 2037, or "for ten years", or somesuch, or "the year 2525, if man is still alive", if I felt like being cheezy.)

    Yeah, that's been reported at least twice before. I sometimes write things that I strongly would need to reconsider later. {grin} (The famous "who would want to change these" hardwired constants in chat2.pl immediately come to mind...)
