RE: [PHP] cookies

Kurth, Try this for multiple values: setcookie ("cookie_name", $firstname."^".$lastname, time()+3600, "/"); Then when you read the cookie: $cookie_array = explode ("^",$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[cookie_name]); $firstname = $cookie_array[0]; $lastname = $cookie_array[1]; The ^ can be any character that would not appear in the values.
