Re: Weird Cookie Problem - your answer
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2007
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 68910
interpreted = N
texte = The date adjustment will take care of that; at first I thought a one-day cookie wouldn't matter, but now that I think it through, it does. You are setting an expired cookie for the wee hours of the day you are currently in, because in England it is already past midnight when you are setting the cookie from 6 pm on. So that cookie will expire immediately. Partly right; sub 6 for 8, but CDT for PDT (you put in CST). You have a typo on one of the [/showif]s, so what, did you retype it? Anyway, here it is adjusted for your time zone: [format days_to_date %A, %d-%b-%Y][math]{[date]}+{00/01/0000}[showif [math]{[time]}+{06:00:00}[showif [date %Z]=CDT]-{01:00:00}[/showif][/math]<[math]{06:00:00}[showif [date %Z]=CDT]-{01:00:00}[/showif][/math]]+{00/01/0000}[/showif][/math][/format] [math time]{[time]}+{06:00:00}[showif [date %Z]=CDT]-{01:00:00}[/showif][/math] GMT Strange that it only cropped up now. Could be that your clients don't normally work evenings.
