No cookis are being stored when i submit form

I am using a PHP page and trying to save contact information using the "remember me" checkbox functionality. I followed the gsg doc but no cookie is being saved when i submit the form. I check my browser's cookies and they are not in the list. I will post my code below, maybe you can find the fault? Thanks.

i have the bindings set for each field and the server behaviors to set each field.

the form is much longer so i will just paste the code that pertains to the cookies:

THE PHP:
if ((((isset($_POST["rememberMe"]))?$_POST["rememberMe"]:"") != "")) {
setcookie("contactName", "".((isset($_POST["contactName"]))?$_POST["contactName"]:"") ."", time()+(60*60*24*30), "/onlinereferral", "http://sandbox2.dev.web", 0);
}
if ((((isset($_POST["rememberMe"]))?$_POST["rememberMe"]:"") != "")) {
setcookie("contactEmail", "".((isset($_POST["contactEmail"]))?$_POST["contactEmail"]:"") ."", time()+(60*60*24*30), "/onlinereferral", "http://sandbox2.dev.web", 0);
}
if ((((isset($_POST["rememberMe"]))?$_POST["rememberMe"]:"") != "")) {
setcookie("contactPhone", "".((isset($_POST["contactPhone"]))?$_POST["contactPhone"]:"") ."", time()+(60*60*24*30), "/onlinereferral", "http://sandbox2.dev.web", 0);
}
if ((((isset($_POST["rememberMe"]))?$_POST["rememberMe"]:"") != "")) {
setcookie("physicianName", "".((isset($_POST["physicianName"]))?$_POST["physicianName"]:"") ."", time()+(60*60*24*30), "/onlinereferral", "http://sandbox2.dev.web", 0);
}
if ((((isset($_POST["rememberMe"]))?$_POST["rememberMe"]:"") != "")) {
setcookie("remember", "1", time()+(60*60*24*30), "/onlinereferral", "http://sandbox2.dev.web", 0);
}

THE FORM FIELDS:
<input name="contactName" type="text" class="input" id="contactName" value="<?php echo((isset($_COOKIE["contactName"]))?$_COOKIE["contactName"]:"") ?>" size="30" />
<input name="contactEmail" type="text" class="input" id="contactEmail" value="<?php echo((isset($_COOKIE["contactEmail"]))?$_COOKIE["contactEmail"]:"") ?>" size="40" />
<input name="contactPhone" type="text" class="input" id="contactPhone" value="<?php echo((isset($_COOKIE["contactPhone"]))?$_COOKIE["contactPhone"]:"") ?>" size="15" />
<input <?php if (!(strcmp(((isset($_COOKIE["remember"]))?$_COOKIE["remember"]:""),1))) {echo "checked=\"checked\"";} ?> name="rememberMe" id="rememberMe" type="checkbox" size="30" />
<input name="physicianName" type="text" class="input" id="physicianName" value="<?php echo((isset($_COOKIE["physicianName"]))?$_COOKIE["physicianName"]:"") ?>" size="30" />

The php code looks ok for setting the cookies. The only part that I can see a potential problem with is the checkbox input you have in your form. You have it like this:

<input <?php if (!(strcmp(((isset($_COOKIE["remember"]))?$_COOKIE["remember"]:""),1))) {echo "checked=\"checked\"";} ?> name="rememberMe" id="rememberMe" type="checkbox" size="30" />

The problem is there is no value attribute, it is this value attribute that is being evaluated by the php code that is attempting to set the cookie. Please add in a value here, you can just set it to 1 and test the page. Let us know if this does not fix it up.
