Tryin to set this here cookie

[kiowa_jackson]

I want someone who is coming in with the link

 

www.mydomain.com/index.php?msg=1

 

to get a cookie set called msg with the value 1.

 

I tried using this:

 

<?php 

$days = 360; 
$time = time() + ($days * 86400);

setcookie('msg', $msg, $time);

?>

 

but to no avail. Can someone tell me what I need to change to make it work?

 

Thanks

use $_GET to get the stuff from the query string:

<?php 

$days = 360; 
$time = time() + ($days * 86400);

setcookie('msg', $_GET['msg'], $time);

?>
