If you use cookies, it should be added automatically, I think.

Hi,

I know it adds values automatically, but one think it does't adds is password. If we have a login page then it contains "remember me" check box. By checking that box, the entered username is stored in cookie but not password. So now I need to edit this cookie file so that i can put info regarding password in the cookie. So is this possible?


Thanks

You don't need to set the password in the cookie file. You just need to remember that the user is logged in. If logged in, there's no need to show the login page.

I've got a 4-page form that lets users enter a whole lot of information, which is then submitted and emailed at the end. All the fields are stored as session data. The whole thing works fine: 1. On my local box (WinXP / Apache2 / PHP4) using IE6 2. On my local box using Firefox1 3. On my hosted server (RHLinux / Apache1.3 / PHP4) using IE6

Hi I'm using several Sessions in my app. When the user has cookies enabled in their browser, everything works fine. But with cookies disabled, only IE seems to remember the sessions. In Firefox and Safari, the session values seem to be "forgotten". I've looked around on Google but can't find any solutions to this problem. Plus I don't know how debug with Firefox (eg. step through the code).

Using javascript to set cookies is apparently not working in Firefox. Here's a simple test page that works in IE, Opera, Netscape, but not Firefox (The javascript is right on the page): http://web.njit.edu/~jmb2/Joel/test_css2.php In any of the browsers besides Firefox, you can set a cookie using PHP or Javascript, but with Firefox (with the code I'm using), you can only set a cookie using PHP.

Hello, I'm having trouble getting MSIE 6.0 (running on XP SP2) to accept a cookie which works fine in both Firefox and wget. The web server is Boa 0.94.13 (a small embedded server) using PHP 4.3.10 for CGI. Even with the lowest security settings in MSIE there is no cookie acceptance, and no "Cookie:" HTTP header is being sent back by MSIE. This is the php code for a fairly minimal testcase:

When run from local files, my javascript code sets cookies properly and they are visible under the Firefox options.
