Is the different directory pointed to by a different virtual host? I
could be completely mistaken, but don't cookies only work on a
per-domain name basis?

If that's not it, I don't know what else it could be.

From the manual (and with honor):

int setcookie ( string name [, string value [, int expire [, string path
[, string domain [, int secure]]]]])

so <?
setcookie ("TestCookie", $value,time()+3600, "/~rasmus/",
".utoronto.ca", 1);
?>


limits the cookie to work on only one specified folder

see for more: www.php.net/setcookie
