RE: [PHP] FW: Cookies, Dammit!

The first approach is actually what we do now. However, since /index.htm is a dynamic page which changes frequently, we don't want to have to try to echo all of those changes into all of the /minisite directories (of which there are well over 100) every single time a change occurs. We're going to try the second approach now, but we still are going to try to build the query string of the Location: header based on values retrieved from a MySQL database. -- Richard S.

Any reason you don't include the contents of /index.htm into /ministe1/index.htm with the appropriate welcome message instead of redirecting, or even pass the site name in the query string of the Location: URL if you're not wanting to rely on http_referer? jason > In this case, the value of the cookie is pulled from a database; the > specific value depends on the URL at the user is redirecting from.
