I noticed some inconsistent behaviour (which may just be me doing somthing stupid of course) when using both PHP and javascript on the same cookies. I use a tree-like menu system which remembers the last item selected in a cookie. I want to reset the cookie on login to the default menu option - which means I use setcookie from php to send the default cookie value. However, my cookie value has a SPACE in it and javascript encodes this using %20 and PHP encodes this using +. As a result the javascript cannot read the cookie value sent from PHP. Of course, if someone has a good tip on how to work around this little problem I would be only tooooo happy to hear it... ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+35084 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+35084&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+35084&report=yes
