Set Cookie Help

[cemanga]

Hi,

I was trying to use setcookie on my website but when I try to use, it wasn't setting anything and then I tried to make sure if it's setting something, I added

echo $_COOKIE;

But it shows Array (just the word) instead of tblogvalue.

 

This is the code I'm using;

$Month = 2592000 + time();
setcookie(tblog, tblogvalue, $Month);

echo $_COOKIE;

<?php

$Month = 2592000 + time();

setcookie('tblog', 'tblogvalue', $Month);

print_r($_COOKIE);

?>

 

[cemanga]

<?php

$Month = 2592000 + time();

setcookie('tblog', 'tblogvalue', $Month);

print_r($_COOKIE);

?>

 

I tried it but now it say;

 

Array ( [phpSESSID] => b87d0f51338e4d77526e5fa17a21cb70 )

it's working for me, check your browser. Maybe you don't have cookies enabled?

 

my result:

 

Array ( [tblog] => tblogvalue [sqliteManager_currentLangue] => 2 )

Cookies are enabled, i copied this code from my other website's index page, on that page its working perfectly but when it comes to this one, its not working at all.

php manual says:

If output exists prior to calling this function, setcookie() will fail and return FALSE. If setcookie() successfully runs, it will return TRUE. This does not indicate whether the user accepted the cookie.

 

do you have output before that code?

<?
if(isset($_POST['login']))
{
if (isset($_POST["password"]) && ($_POST["password"]=="$pass")) {

$Month = 2592000 + time();
setcookie('tblog', 'tblogvalue', $Month);
print_r($_COOKIE);

}
else
{
if (isset($_POST['password']) || $password == "") {
echo "<b>Password Wrong</b><br>Please reenter your password!</a><br><br>";}
}
}
?>

Just as a warning, you shouldn't give the PHPSESSID value here.  If you give the site you're on, a user can spoof your account and access anything you have permissions to use.

Is that your entire code? where does $sifre come from?

[cemanga]

Thanks alot, just like you said, there was some outputs.

Actually that won't have been the whole issue.

 

<?php

setcookie('foo', 'bar');
print_r($_COOKIE);

?>

 

If you try running just this code, you will notice that the cookie is not included within the output the first time you run it. That's because $_COOKIE is populated prior to the execution of your code, and a call to setcookie() does not actually create the cookie. It simply adds a header to the response sent by the server to the browser, telling the browser to create it. So realistically you don't know for sure that the cookie has been set until the next request, however you can populate the $_COOKIE array yourself so that you can use it later in your code:

 

$_COOKIE['foo'] = 'bar';
