masterinex Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 <?php $a = 1; $a = $a + 1; $expiry = new DateTime('+1year') ; setcookie( 'language' , 'EN-GB', $expiry->getTimestamp()); var_dump($_COOKIE); echo "Hello world!"; ?> When i run this in phpstorm , i am getting this output: C:\xampp\htdocs\Sandbox\index.php:11: array (size=1) 'Phpstorm-aa4c01d' => string 'cc5eb5a0-3c37-42ff-8538-e849091f48c8' (length=36) Hello world! how come var_dump does not give me the language and 'EN-GB' as output ?

Jacques1 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Because $_COOKIE contains the parsed cookies from the request. It does not include new cookies you're trying to set -- which wouldn't make a lot of sense, because you have no idea whether the client will even accept your cookie.
