Summary0000483: Session cookies not created for local website
Descriptionalan@adamshome.org.uk.
I am developing a website with a login script. That script uses
session_register("myusername");
$_SESSION['login_user']=$myusername;

A check later does
$login_session=$row['login_user'];
if (!isset($login_session)) { <report no login> }
This works in IE, Firefox, Safari and Chrome. In Netsurf (2.8 and latest dev build) it works IF I use http://192.168.0.1/nckc/login.php
but fails for http://laptop2/nckc/login.php
There is a cookie created in 192.168.0.1 called PHPSESSID. There is nothing created when connecting to the laptop by name. (I deleted all the cookies first, so I could be sure.)
I noticed a bug reporting this in 2007, closed without any comment I could find, except "expired".
I am new to writing PHP, so the problem could be in my code, which was cribbed in the usual fashion from google.

previous comment should have started http://laptop2/nckc i.e. the host name contains no dots. Sorry for any confusion.

I set up a DNS server, so http://laptop2.nckc/index.php became http://laptop2.adamshome.local/nck/index.php and the problem was no longer seen.

I am guessing that this occurs when the domain name doesn't contain a dot.
