tarnold4 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I have a script i was playing with below. I want to edit it using the setcookie() function to set a cookie with the random image script, using the $_COOKIE array, i want to be able to read the cookie if its available. Finally i want to create a test condition where a new random index is selected if the user has previously viewed the image and the cookie is available. I would love to know how to do this <html> <head> <title>JFQ Turnings</title> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> <img src="jfqturnings.gif" alt="JFQ Turnings, coming soon." width="864" height="100"> <br /><img src="<?php echo getRandomImage(); ?>" alt="" width="864" height="567"> <?php echo getRandomImage(); function getRandomImage() { $images = array("candlestick.jpg", "rollingpin.jpg", "table.jpg", "table2.jpg"); $random = rand(0, 3); return $images[$random]; } ?> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/295225-running-setcookie/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
iarp Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) You seem to know the functions you already require. setcookie('mycookie', 'random_image.jpg', time() + 3600); if (!empty($_COOKE['mycookie']) { echo "$_COOKIE['mycookie'] has the value of " . $_COOKIE['mycookie']; } Edited March 15, 2015 by iarp Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/295225-running-setcookie/#findComment-1508081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
