I have this simple script I spent an hour and a half building. I'm redirecting from clickbank to a special offer page based on the affiliate's clickbank name and setting a cookie called "hop"

It works on my main index page, but not on other pages in the same folder?

Here's the code
Code:
<?php
if ($hop == "affiliate1")
{
   print "Affiliate Name'";
}
else if ($hop == "affiliate2")
{
   print "Affiliate Name'";
}
else
{
   print "My";
}
?>



Even odder, that code works on index.php, but if I rename it index2.php it doesn't work. It doesn't read the cookie on index2.php and act on it.

When I print the contents of the cookie on index.php I get "hop =>cbnickname". On index2.php I get array().

Is there something wrong with the way I am loading the cookie?

Here's how I load the cookie -

Code:
setcookie("hop",$_GET['hop'],time()+60*60*24*30);



That's on a different page and redirects to the sales page. The value of hop is in the URL like this .com/?hop=kickbutt, so I need to use the GET.

What's wrong here? Got to be something simple.

Thanks for your time,
Terry
