Why does the following work:
// (1) Set new cookies
setcookie ("font_type" , $type_sel, time()+3600);
setcookie ("font_size" , $size_sel, time()+3600);
// (1) Get most recent cookie
$font_type = $_COOKIE["font_type"];
$font_size = $_COOKIE["font_size"];
if (isset($font_ty pe) && isset($font_siz e))
echo "Found Cookies<br>\n";
But this does not work:
// (2) Set new cookies
setcookie ("font[type]", $type_sel, time()+3600);
setcookie ("font[size]", $size_sel, time()+3600);
// (2) Get most recent cookie
$font[type] = $_COOKIE["font[type]"];
$font[size] = $_COOKIE["font[size]"];
if (isset($font[type]) && isset($font[size]))
echo "Found Cookies<br>\n";
I took (2) from the book Beginning PHP4 (Wrox), page 282-286. I did
(1) myself in an effort to get the book code working.
When (2) is executed the if statement in never true.
Note: $type_sel and $size_sel, in (1) and (2), both have valid values
at the time the cookie is set.
Note 2: I appreciate that I shouldn't be calling my page variables by
the same name as my cookie variables but that is not the problem - it
does not explain why (1) works but (2) does not work.
What am I doing wrong?

You can't do anything with cookies maked in this file open!
Sorry for bad grammar, I'm from Polish :)

a) the newly set values won't be avail in the $_COOKIE array until the
next time you load the page.
b) by using the []s php assumes you want to use an array-like
structure...
$_COOKIE now looks like array(
'font' => array(
'type' => x,
'size' => y,
),
any other values....
)
print_r($_COOKI E); // print_r is your friend
so you'd access 'size' via $_COOKIE['font']['size']
note: you're actually setting/saving 2 discret cookies this way..
php just creates the single font array.
I prefer to manually serialize/unserialize. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Fourth attempt.. it fails now in login, I check by printing
$_COOKIE and there is no value there! Guys, what
on earth do I do about this????
Here is the code that sets the cookie:
if ($hasLoggedIn && ($row = mysql_fetch_row($query))) {
setcookie('nordicnet_registration', $row,
0, '/');

cookies are stored in an array called $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS right ?
Is it possible to find a cookie if you know part of it's name ?
For example the cookiename is firstname and I want to check all

I did try to find the answer to this before posting, so this isn't a
knee jerk reaction.
What I am trying to accomplish is to have a script that opens a
cookie, reads a value, and then use a switch/case to take action based
on that value in the cookie. I want to set the cookie manually, so I
don't need setcookie(). I see that in PHP it stores the cookie in
memory. Is there a way to have PHP just read a cookie from the desktop
machine?...

I'd like to assign an array to a cookie. But, I can't incrementally assign cookie names, thus, I can't assign different values. Here is the code that should work, but doesn't let me.
count = 0
for each x in Array
Response.Cookies("cookie")(count) = x
count = count + 1
next
This should give a list of cookies that contain the array values. However, I get this error:
