Hi Laliyuswa, Sometimes setcookie() behaves strangely in IE5 versions. Try this instead: $time = mktime() + 86400; $date = date("l, d-M-y H:i:s", ($time)); header("Set-Cookie: cookiename=$value; expires=$date GMT"); In this example, the cookie will expire in a day (86,400 seconds). Hope this helps, Shanx
