Firefox is following the real spec and does not decode '+' to space...in fact it further encodes them to '%2B' to store the cookie. If you read a cookie using javascript and unescape it, all your spaces will be turned to '+'. To fix this problem, use setrawcookie and rawurlencode: setrawcookie('cookie_name', rawurlencode($value), time()+60*60*24*365); The only change is that spaces will be encoded to '%20' instead of '+' and will now decode properly. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 24.131.141.243 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/62848 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/62848 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/62848 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
