Fourth attempt.. it fails now in login, I check by printing $_COOKIE['nordicnet_registration'] and there is no value there!  Guys, what on earth do I do about this????

Here is the code that sets the cookie:

if ($hasLoggedIn && ($row = mysql_fetch_row($query))) {
   setcookie('nordicnet_registration', $row['nnet_user_registrationnumber'], 0, '/');
   @mysql_free_result($query);
   mysql_close($dbConn) or die('Could not close db');
   $html .= $font . '<font color=000099>Takk for logging inn.  For forsatte ' .
            "<a href=http://$serverName/index.php?content=membersites/Palogget%20S1.php " .
            '  target=_top>klikk her</a></font></font>';
  } else if (sizeof($_POST) > 0) {
   $errorMsg .= $font . '<font color=cc0000><li>Det finns en problem med db</li></font></font><p>';
   $hasLoggedIn = 0;
  }


Because the PHP script is in a frame, instead of using header() I print out some text with a link <a href=mylink.php target=_top> for the user to click and to go to another page.  By then the cookie should be registered, yet it's not there!

I'm at a complete loss.
