problem with a cookie - El Forum - 06-27-2011

hello
I am setting a cookie in a certain controller and then trying to retrieve it in another one. To set it I do:
Code:
$this->input->set_cookie(array(
"name" => "user_email",
"value" => $this->loginAttempt->getEmail(),
"expire" => "3600", // 1 hour!
"secure" => true
));which works fine as firebug is concerned. The cookie "user_email" is there and I can see it!
But when I move to the new action (a different page basically) I cannot retrieve it and I get a FALSE when I do:
Code:
$email = $this->input->cookie("user_email");
var_dump($email);which is weird cuz as in this new page too, firebug is still able to see the cookie.
Anybody??
cheers

Sorry guyz can you at least confirm that cookies are working in CI?

yes cookies do work... I've just tried a similar example in my reactor 2.0.2 and it works like a charm... do you have a test link perhaps?
