Re: Testing if cookies are enabled

Hi Aidan,

Think about it. Step 1) Analyse the problem. a) Set a cookie. b) Test if the cookie has been set. c) Display data from cookie Step 2) Read the fucking manual a) http://php.net/setcookie b) http://php.net/setcookie c) http://php.net/setcookie

thanks for your reply, I think you missunderstood, please read more carefully. I know how to set and read a cookie, but as I wrote I wasn't able to set and text a cookie ON THE SAME PAGE. The manual says: http://php.net/setcookie "Once the cookies have been set, they can be accessed ON THE NEXT PAGE." But I have seen pages on which it seems they set und check if the cookie has been set ON THE SAME PAGE. So I want to know how they do that (perhaps with a 302-header or something like that?).

Hello! I saw this on some pages and want to do the same: - On one page the user can login. Before that no cookie is set! - On the next page they set the cookie and show either the user data or a warning that the user has disabled cookies and should enable them. I wasn't able to set and text a cookie on the same page! How is it done? Martin
