alright. i fixed the cookie problem. took me only a few days. i'm tired now ...
ok, here it is in a nutshell: - cookies are send to the client computer within the HTTP-Header. - a http-header can NOT be send after any other data has been send to the client. (hence the name HEADER). - if you attempt to send a cookie AFTER the header was sent, you either (on good systems) get a error message OR the cookie request will be ignored. - for sloppy/stupid/unexpierienced/stupid/stupid programmers, there is a workaround where you can cache all web-page data in a buffer and if that web-page contains any header/cookie specific calls, those will be collected and send first, then the rest of the page. this is done by the web-server. - this allows for really shitty code to actually work. - this is what the guys who made our BBS code were doing. (IBF forums) so, all i had to do was to set the "i'm a dumb-ass programmer" flag in the server settings, and voila! it works again ... Andy |
