Re: Weird Cookie Problem Part 2

interpreted = N
texte = Thanks for verifying that the cookie code looks ok. There's a limiter on the second cookie setting on purpose. I didn't get a chance last night to test at different times, I'll have to make myself a reminder for tonight. I dismissed the browser settings because I've never touched my settings and it just stops working sometimes and the complaints I receive from other users are all on different browsers and platforms. I couldn't find any pattern there. Stuart, I just want the cookie to expire in 24 hours, relative to the time it was set, so time zones shouldn't affect me, right? I'm really at a loss here. It's such an important feature of my sites and I can't explain why users just can't log in some times. More suggestions are welcome.
