How does one check to see if the user's browser accepts session cookies?
Apparently I should have said cookie and left off the 's' as that is what I had in mind.
Send one cookie, see if it comes back, and if it does, tie everything to that cookie.
OK. So how do I see if it comes back? I send the user a page that tries to set a session cookie. That page would then have to forward him to a second page which would check for the cookie being sent. Right? So I there is nothing I can check so I can do it with a single page?
You can also set up php.ini and use the built-in sessions with http://php.net/session_start so that PHP will take care of this for you.
That is what I was intending to do. How do I find out if whether or not the session cookie was accepted using the built-in sessions? I found no function for such a test. Best, Craig ------------------------------------------------------
