    JavaScript cookies (in subdirectories) and PHP file

    Dear Experts:

    I have a problem with my JS cookies. I am setting cookies in files
    located in two different directories, e.g. one in ROOT, one in
    ROOT/dir1/dir2. The cookies are then sent to PHP file (server-side)
    which writes their values to a textfile, e.g. OUT.txt.

    The cookies that are in ROOT are working perfectly. No problem. The
    cookies set in ROOT/dir1/dir2, however, "seemed" to be set and read
    correctly, although
    they are never written into OUT.txt in the server. I have used:

    javascript.aler t(document.cook ie);

    to make sure that all the cookies are set and read properly. They are
    displaying correct cookie values. I have also set the path of cookies
    in ROOT/dir1/dir2 to ROOT directory, e.g. path=/, making sure the
    cookies are accessible from anywhere in the domain.

    I am running out of ideas what may cause the problem and hope you
    could help me.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    How do you write the cookies to the text file?

    Be aware that when testing cookies this way, they will be available before
    the cookie header is send. This is because in JavaScript, 'document' is an
    object and 'cookie' a property of this object.

    In PHP, the cookie is available not sooner then after a reload of the page.
