Thanks Gordon, will look at this as it's something that I haven't really
considered. However, I am currently developing the area where the cookies
are being used. My issue is that I am unable to test locally as a cookie
isn't being set (I'm using firefox), however it works fine on the remote
server (i.e. .domain.com). I wasted a couple of hours yesterday mucking
about, beacuse I thought there was a problem with the MySQL server .. and it
was the cookie that was at fault.

Will my hack above allow me to test locally (no, is my current answer to
that), or is there another way of testing on localhost I haven't considered?

Thanks
