[SOLVED] Cookies

[Devine]

"Forever" cookies..

 

How can I do that?

[ChadNomad]

What's the point?

For persistent cookie You must have to give expire time.

 

You can set it for many years.

 

Example : 100 Years

 

setcookie('name','value',time()+100*365*24*60*60);

I want to offer the possibility of being "logged in forever".. (aslong as they dont delete the cookies from their browser.

[steelmanronald06]

make the cookie time expire like so:

 

$lp = 0;

$setup = 100;

 

while ($lp < 100)

{

$setup = $setup * 100;

 

$lp++;

}

 

setcookie("TestCookie", $value, $setup);

And it won't be taken deleted as soon as they close their browser right?

Yes.

 

It will not be deleted up to set expire time.

[steelmanronald06]

well, it depends on browser settings.  If they have it to delete cookies, clear history after 0 days, etc like I do, then everytime they close the browser their cookies and history are deleted.
