[PHP-DOC] Cookies problem with Netscape in PHP3 From: John Albright (albright <email protected>)
Date: 07/13/00

I'm using the SetCookie Function in php3 to set several cookies. All appear
to work fine in IE. However, netscape does not appear to set them. The
headers created by the function appear as follows...

Set-Cookie: username=userblah; expires=Wednesday, 11-Oct-00 17:14:56 GMT;
domain=mydomain.com
Set-Cookie: password=passblah; expires=Wednesday, 11-Oct-00 17:14:56 GMT;
domain=mydomain.com

Again, IE picks these up fine, but Netscape never recognizes them. I showed
it to a friend of mine who knows a fair amount and he said that the cookie
standards call for a 3 letter day name, not the full name. I.E. Wed rather
than Wednesday. Any idea if this is the case? If so, has this issue been
addressed in PHP4?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
John Albright
