Cookie Blues (pleasssssssse help)

[Guest upirate]

Im setting a cookie like this:

 

setcookie("imagestatus", "1", time()+ (86400 * 30));//30 days

 

 

 

But my if statement is not evaluating as true

 

if ($_Cookie['imagestatus']=="1")

 

 

 

 

any suggestions ?

if ($_Cookie['imagestatus']==1)

same thing. :-(

 

 

 

print_r gives me a 1

 

 

 

 

 

But for some reason that statement is not evaluating as true.

are you trying to check on the same script run? if so it won't work. Once a cookie has been set it is NOT available to use until the current script has finished running... I should however be available on the next page run.

ok this is what i found out

 

 

print_r gives me a 1

also I cannot do echo $_Cookie['imagestatus']; as it doesnt print anything. No matter how many times I run the script..same thing happens.

 

print_R gives returns a 1.

assign the cookie to a variable and use the variable...

 

$var1=$_COOKIE['cookie_var'];

(code with $var1 in it);
