Re: Does browser support cookies?

You could have an initial PHP script that sets a cookie, then redirects to a second script which checks for the cookie the first script tried to set. If the second script detects the cookie, then continue doing whatever you need to be doing. Otherwise, handle the lack of cookie support however you need to. You would only need to set a test cookie once. (If possible, you could try to set the cookie value you need straight away instead of setting a "dummy" cookie, then check to see if the cookie is valid.) Every subsequent page in the site would check for the cookie and handle the presence/absence of the cookie appropriately. I do exactly this in one of my sites, and it works beautifully. At any point in the site, the scripts will detect when a cookie dies or cookie support is disabled every time a new page is loaded or the current page is refreshed. Hope this helps. Stephen.
