Prevent cookie from getting other pages?

I don't want to allow getting cookie from other page ! I have been searched on internet but not really found or may be I don't know how to mention that case .How can I manage that ! I want to get null in test2.php but get cookie in test.php ?

test.php

<?php
setcookie("acc_id", "23A", time() + 3600, '/');
header("test.php");
var_dump($_COOKIE);　// 'acc_id' => string '23A' (length=3)
?>

test2.php

<?php
var_dump($_COOKIE); // 'acc_id' => string '23A' (length=3)

You can use the $path parameter in the setcookie syntax.

setcookie("acc_id", "23A", time() + 3600, '/test.php');

Now if you try print_r($_COOKIE['acc_id']); from your test2.php, it will show you Undefined Index, which means the cookie is not set for that page.

I have named the page as text.php in my environment.
