List,
I'm trying to set a cookie like this:
<?php
function redirect() {
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']) {
$to = func_get_arg(0);
header("HTTP/1.1 301\n");
header("Location:http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$to."\n");
header("Set-Cookie: sid=$sid;\n\n");
exit();
}
}
function login() {
[... validation code here ...]
// set my cookie
setcookie("sid", $sid);
return true;
}
if (login($token) == true) {
redirect("/somepage.php");
}
?>
but this thing isn't working...seems like it's not writing the SID value in the cookie. In other code (on /somepage.php for example) when I read the cookie value ($_COOKIES['sid']) it can't find it. Ideas?
So how do I set cookies then redirect?
I'm using Apache 1.3.x, PHP 4.1.2, RH7.3
TIA
