PHP Cookies

[mikhl]

I have a cookie that sets the users ID number. This is so that they can be logged on. The cookie lasts for 24hours or until the user logs out.

 

I have recently noticed that if a user logs in at http://website.com they are not logged in at http://www.website.com this is causing a few problems.

Is there any way to set a cookie so that it works for both of these url's.

 

The code that I have used to create the cookie is:

setcookie(fp_user,$user_id,time()+60*60*24)

 

Thanks

Try

setcookie($fp_user, $user_id, time()+60*60*24, '/', '.website.com');

Instead use '/', per the manual:

 

Path:

The path on the server in which the cookie will be available on. If set to '/', the cookie will be available within the entire domain. If set to '/foo/', the cookie will only be available within the /foo/ directory and all sub-directories such as /foo/bar/ of domain. The default value is the current directory that the cookie is being set in

Thanks guys. Problem solved. I used the code given

@TeNDoLLA,

 

My apologies. I see you DID use just '/' for the domain parameter. All I "saw" was the ".website.com" parameter.
