Browser problem (OT)

After scanning the docs for WebBBS 5.12, I would check the config file for the following from the help docs:

$boardname: The name of your specific discussion board. THIS VARIABLE MUST BE DEFINED FOR COOKIES AND CERTAIN OTHER SCRIPT FUNCTIONS TO WORK PROPERLY! If you don't want the board name to print, set $printboardname as 0. Do *not* simply leave $boardname undefined.

$UseCookies: If this variable is set to "0" (or commented out) the use of "cookies" will not be implemented. If it is set to "1" it will be. "Cookies" allow the board to recognize return visitors, keep track of messages posted since their previous visit, maintain their personal index display preferences, and automatically insert their names and e-mail addresses into the post forms.

$SessionTime: Define here the time (in minutes) that a visitor must be absent from the forum before a "new visit" is considered to have begun. If this variable is undefined, or is defined with any value lower than five minutes or greater than 120, the script will use its default value of 30 minutes.

It looks like it is properly setting 2 cookies, although, I would also want to make sure the file permissions were set at "777".

I hope that helps.
