Cookies with login system?

ChrisMartino · January 16, 2010

Hey my login system is pritty basic at the moment, When you leave the page and come back your not logged in anymore, I've looked at some tutorials on cookies and attempted them but all my attempts have failed, Could somebody show me how to fix this so it keeps you logged in for a month?

This is my login.php so you get the idea of the variables i used:

<?php include "Main/Database/base.php"; ?>
