Mike, it's nice that you're keen, but if you slow down a bit and start
from the examples in the manual, changing them step by step, you'll
get on a lot better that just throwing some code down and asking here
when it doesn't work.

Try the Example #1 from

http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php

and then note that you are multiplying the time() value rather than
adding to it.
