Cookies and Sessions

[y2k1981]

I need to learn how to create a cookie using PHP. I know that when you create a session, it does place a cookie on your system with the seeion ID in there, but as soon as you close the browser, the session seems to be gone? also, when I look in my cookies, there's no physical cookie there. Why is this? I want to create a cookie so that the user only has to log on once, and then they can close the browser, and next time the open it, they won't have to log on again because it will read the cookie. Can somebody guide me to some tutorial on cookies on PHP?

hmm..
google found this for me:

http://www.evolt.org/article/PHP_Login_Script_with_Remember_Me_Feature/17/60265/

I guess you can read up on the login part there, so you will see what you need to to, to accomplish your aqquired task.

good luck.
