PHP cookies are not working on live server

I'm having a hard time with PHP cookies. I have tested my code on the local server and it seems to be working as expected but when I'm testing my code on the live server, everything is working fine but cookies. I tried everything( including StackOverflow) but it seems not to be working. //these two lines are not executing at all on live server setcookie("_login",$_COOKIE['_login'] = $_POST['email'], time()+2595600, "/"); setcookie("_password",$_COOKIE['_password'] = $_POST['password'], time()+2595600, "/"); if(!empty($_POST['rem'])) //if the button is checked { setcookie("member_login",$_POST['email'],time()+2595600); setcookie("member_password",$_POST['password'],time()+2595600); } What am I doing wrong? Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Remove the COOKIE superglobal. And learn how to sanitize inputs.

Can you put the code without COOKIE in here too? Preferably in a PlayGround link.

Ben Allen (Njinx) I tried without COOKIE superglobal but it didn't work either. Here I'm not talking about how to sanitize user input. I just gave a sample of my code snippet so don't need to comment on that.

@Ben I have updated my answer. if(!empty($_POST['rem'])) //if the button is checked { //NOT WORKING AT ALL setcookie("member_login",$_POST['email'],time()+2595600); setcookie("member_password",$_POST['password'],time()+2595600); }
