<?php
$value = 'something from somewhere';
setcookie("TestCookie", $value);
?>

bool setcookie ( string name [, string value [, int expire [, string path [, string domain [, int secure]]]]])
If you don't give it the expire option then the cookie expires at the end of the session (when the browser closes), sure you're not getting this behaviour?

Didn't go where? What code are you using to check the cookie exists?

you may want to try the following
Code: Select all
setcookie("TestCookie",$value,0,'/');
