Advanced COOKIES && SESSIONS && MYSQL for User and Profile Management

[Diamond 0]

Hello users:

I am exploring the delightful world of PHP for web applications. I am in the stage where I need to use SESSIONS and COOKIES and MYSQL for a user/membership/profile structure. I understand most of the grammar behind PHP and am excited to apply this in application.

 

I am searching for recommendations and comments about using:

1. COOKIES

2. SESSIONS

3. MYSQL/SQL

 

Almost every website has an authentication mechanism, profile, and use information. My website required this similar structure, but I have been having some problems completing all of the technical steps for production.

 

If anyone has code samples or places where I can review code on this topic, that would be wonderful. I am specifically searching for more advanced topics in these area for general robustness. 

 

Please kindly send me a message or respond to this post.

Regards,

Diamond
