I'm having trouble fetching a cookie that I set. I used this code to set the cookie...

my $c = new CGI::Cookie( -name => 'perl_timesheet_username', -value => 'hello');

$html->PrintHTML("Set-Cookie: $c");

Set Set-Cookie does print the exact parameters I submitted, however, this code for fetching the data afterwards does not pull anything and also I checked the cookie folder and there is no new cookie...

my (%cookies) = fetch CGI::Cookie;
foreach (keys %cookies)
{
$html->PrintHTML("Cookie - $cookies{$_}");
}

This prints nothing. Am I doing something wrong? I pulled this information right from the perlmonks man page for CGI.pm for setting and fetching cookies.

Oh yeah, I'm using NT 4.0 WKSTN with PWS.

Thanks.
