    Unhappy Cookies?! Iframes? OH NOES!

    Hello, I use a simple PHP Login system on my site, but because I can't afford a domain, I use www.freedomain.co.nr which uses a big iframe to display my site. In the PHP script I tried to set the COOKIE_DOMAIN for my login script to www.my_site.co.nr, but that won't work. Is there a way I can use JS to send the COOKIE_DOMAIN to the iframe, or any other way to make it work?

    What the heck kind of a web host forces their user's page into an Iframe?

    Oh yeah, a free one.

    Not an answer to your question, but have you considered running your own server with some free dns service?

    You'd be surprised. I've run across several pay ones that do this too. PowWeb is one, for example. Clients come to us with these dinky hosts a lot. By the end of our time with them though, 90% of them switch to a REAL host, so it's all good.

    Nailgunpro, sorry to go off topic. I don't have much insight on your problem either. But perhaps this can help.

    [ANSWER]
    Co.nr is a forwarding service which doesn't supply any webspace at all. They load up your webpage in a frame, which is optional, so you dont have to remember a long url. Think shorturl or snipurl, just forwarding.

    Sometimes this causes problems due to the frame, a simple way to fix this is to turn off anything which mentions frames or URL masking/hiding.
