[thelist] php newbie question: cookies or not?

Sounds like this is the root of the problem or at least one of them. Without
knowing too much more about what you've got, here are a few things to check:

How are you calling/storing the cookie after storing it?
Is PHP configured properly for sessions on your web server?
Is the path for the cookie set accurately? I have made this mistake before
as I develop on one machine in a subdirectory and serve from another in the
root, and have forgotten to changes paths before.
