<?php

setcookie("engineer","engineer",time()+3600);

<img src= "image3.jpg"  height="300" width="300"/>

</html>

i created a apache2 server in my ubantu virtual machine, and placed the above file with name test.php in the /var/www/html folder and tried to access the website, the website got opened but the cookie was not set :( i don't the reason why cookie has not set. i tried some answers from stackoverflow but still not able to set cookie anyone help me in this
Here is what i tried

added the '/' for path

setcookie("engineer","engineer",time()+3600,'/');
but still not able to setcookie

uninstalled and reinstalled the apache2 server but still same issue.

also tried by removing time() in that line
setcookie("engineer","engineer",3600);

My Answer:
setcookie("user", "John Doe", time() + 3600, "/");
?>

";
} else {
echo "Cookie not set!";
}
?>
