Hi, I want to increment a cookie by 1 every time a click a button if (isset($add) { $number++; setcookie("cookie[number]", "$number Is the number") } I know I should retireve the cookie value for $number but the problem is it has 2 bits, a number and a bit of text.

in your case this can be done simply: $number = 99; $string = "$number Is the number"; echo "the number is ",intval($string),"\n"; this works because the number is at the start of the string... (and because of the cool way the made type conversion work in php) to find out more search/read the manual on the subject of typecasting/conversion.
