help with cookies

[eluser]vecima[/eluser]
Just as an update and i guess a bump...

I've gotten this working with the regular PHP setcookie method and $_COOKIE variable. The whole thing works except for my code using the CI cookie helper. To be honest it's about the same amount of code to do it either way, so now I'm wondering if there is some benefit of using the helper? Obviously the helper makes the code a little bit cleaner, but I have yet to get it to work properly, and I really can't see the reason why. I'm not new to PHP or OOP, but I must be missing something here (I've checked it over countless times, though).

I'm hoping someone here can help me do it the CI way, otherwise, since it works, I'll just go on using the regular PHP cookie code :-S
