texte = Well the [setcookie name=nerconsecure... code is affected by the time of the day for some reason. I'm unable to log in again tonight, which is the same time of night as when I found the problem a few days ago. I changed the {05:00:00} to {06:00:00}, which is CST and the time my server is set to. That didn't do anything. I tested the other setcookie code I originally posted (below) and it worked fine, so I copied it over the nerconsecure cookie code and changed the domain and cookie name, but it still doesn't work. I will test it at midnight again to verify it starts working again, but right now I'm at a huge loss for an explanation. on 4/23/07 7:34 PM, Stuart Tremain at webdna@idfk.com.au wrote: > The Time thing .... > > If your cookie is due to expire at 14:00 GMT that means it will > expire at 11:00 EST USA EST is 5 hours behind GMT (could be wrong, > just a quick estimate) > > So what I am saying is if you are expecting the cookie to expire at > 24:00 your time you will need to set the cookie to expire at 5 hours > ahead of that. > > Don't worry Donovan, I have a WebDNA lotto selector for that LOL > > http://demo.graphitesuite.com/lotto.html > > Just remember making up with the girlfriend is usually pretty good :) > > > On 24 Apr 2007, at 1:47 AM, Donovan Brooke wrote: > >> Eddie Z wrote: >> >>> [setcookie name=ezcookie&value=[usku]&expires=Tuesday, 29-Nov-2011 >>> 23:23:23 >>> GMT&path=/&domain=ez1productions.com] >> >>> [setcookie name=nerconsecure&value=[userID]&expires=[format >>> days_to_date %A, >>> %d-%b-%Y][math]{[date]}+1[/math][/format] [math >>> time]{[time]}+{05:00:00}[/math] GMT&path=/ >>> &domain=nercon.thinksite.com] >> >> >> Stuart, time thing? make a random change?
