#33947 [Opn->Csd]: session.cookie_domain default behavior undocumented

ID: 33947 Updated by: vrana@php.net Reported By: gabe at mudbugmedia dot com -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux/Debian PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. "Default is none at all meaning the host name of the server which generated the cookie according to cookies specification."

(after that, it's up to the browser to behave correctly..) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-01 17:35:59] gabe at mudbugmedia dot com Description: ------------ For the php.ini setting session.cookie_domain, the default value of '' (empty string) is documented in the php.ini and on the website. However, the meaning of the empty string value, and its expected default behavior, is not documented. The documentation needs updating to state what cookie domain will be sent to the browser. As of now I am getting conflicting reports of whether this empty value should set the cookie to '.blah.com' (to go across all sub-domains) or just 'www.blah.com' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33947&edit=1
