JavaScript cookies (in subdirectories) and PHP file

[duane]

Dear Experts:

I have a problem with my JS cookies. I am setting cookies in files
located in two different directories, e.g. one in ROOT, one in
ROOT/dir1/dir2. The cookies are then sent to PHP file (server-side)
which writes their values to a textfile, e.g. OUT.txt.

The cookies that are in ROOT are working perfectly. No problem. The
cookies set in ROOT/dir1/dir2, however, "seemed" to be set and read
correctly, although
they are never written into OUT.txt in the server. I have used:

javascript.alert(document.cookie);

to make sure that all the cookies are set and read properly. They are
displaying correct cookie values. I have also set the path of cookies
in ROOT/dir1/dir2 to ROOT directory, e.g. path=/, making sure the
cookies are accessible from anywhere in the domain.

I am running out of ideas what may cause the problem and hope you
could help me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Duane

How do you write the cookies to the text file?

Be aware that when testing cookies this way, they will be available before
the cookie header is send. This is because in JavaScript, 'document' is an
object and 'cookie' a property of this object.

In PHP, the cookie is available not sooner then after a reload of the page.
