Cookie Length Question

[Zepo.]

Im not sure if its my browser doing this or what, but the cookie only seems to last as long as a session does. Heres the code.

Select

<select class='button' name='login[clength]'>
<option value='60'>1 Hour</option>
<option value='1440'>1 Day</option>
<option value='10080'>1 Week</option>
<option value='43200'>1 Month</option>
<option value='-1' selected='selected'>Forever</option>
</select>

 

Cookie Set

setcookie(tid, $getid[id], $login[clength]);
setcookie(user, $login[name], $login[clength]);
setcookie(pass, $login[pass], $login[clength]);

[revraz]

setcookie ('tid', $getid[id], time () + (60*$login[clength]),'/');

 

That is the idea you want to do, not sure if it will parse your variables right or not though like that.

[Zepo.]

I dont think its parsing them, because it doesnt even set the cookie.

[revraz]

There is no setting that will last forever.  Make the last option a year.

[Zepo.]

Well, the code isnt working. Doesnt set them.

[Zepo.]

Any other way to do this?

[revraz]

You don't say how any of these get set.  Are you using a FORM?

 

I don't see where $login[clength] = login[clength]

 

[Zepo.]

Yes im using a form, my old way of doing it was working, but it just expired after about a day.

[revraz]

First you stated it expired when you closed the browser, now you say it lasted for a day.

 

Lets make sure variables are set.

 

If you echo $login[clength], what is the value when you set the cookie?

 

The time value is based on Seconds, it looks like you are treating it as minutes, thats why I added the extra 60* in there

[Zepo.]

It echos the same value as selected. Im not sure if i was, but it never really had a defined lench, it seemed to go away when it wanted to.

[revraz]

Try using it without variables

 

setcookie ('tid', $getid['id'], time () + (60*60*24*365),'/');

[Zepo.]

Doesnt work either.

[Zepo.]

Bump.

[Zepo.]

setcookie(tid,$getid[id],time() + time() + 60 * $login[clength]);
setcookie(user,$login[name],time() + 60 * $login[clength]);
setcookie(pass,$login[pass],time() + 60 * $login[clength]);

 

The best i could come up with, still doesnt work.

[revraz]

You didn't even enter it as I posted.  Try copy/paste instead of typing it, since you are leaving out a few things.

[Zepo.]

I tried it as you posted it, still didnt work.
