my $query = CGI->new();
my $cookie = $query->cookie(-name=>'username',
                            -value=>$query->param('name'), 
                             -expires=>'+1h',
                            -domain=>'storm.prohosting.com');

the program that will retrieve that data will be at http://storm.prohosting.cin/fightior/cgi-bin/warrior.pl. I hve been unable to retrieve the cookie and have used mutliple methods but i always end up with a null value. The cookie is set because I have looked at it. Thank you in advance
