Hello, I have a following line in my code to set a session cookie when user logs in. It works fine. setcookie("sess_id","$sess_id",0,"/"); Can I store more information to the session cookie? I mean other variables.what are you trying to do? (do you need the info in the cookie on the client? or does it need to be 'permanent'? <explicitly-without-sarcasm> do you know what a php session is? I get the impression you either don't or that there is some kind of misunderstanding. </explicitly-without-sarcasm> if you want to use the native php session functionality then you don't have to use setcookie(), instead have good look at: http://php.net/session and in particular: http://php.net/session_start tiny hint: you 'start' the session on each page (maybe an include file would come in handy) and then make use of the $_SESSION superglobal (which can store allsorts [but not all**] of types of variables accross requests). **resources,filehandles,streams,etc
Like I tried it like this with no success. setcookie("sess_id","$sess_id",$another_variable,0,"/"); Thanks -Will
