Does anyone know how the wikimedia cookies are stored and how I can access them? Sorry if this is something extremely simple, I'm still a bit of a noob :) While it's remotely possible somebody here uses WikiMedia and knows the answer it's not really a "General PHP" type of question... Your best options are: Ask the WikiMedia folks. Install LiveHTTPHeaders in Firefox and see what Cookies you get. Configure your browser to prompt you for all Cookies and see what Cookies you get. HTH
