If you use base64encoded strings as cookie names, make sure you remove '=' characters. At
least Internet Explorer refuses cookie names containing '=' characters or urlencoded
cookie names containing %xx character replacements. Use the function below to turn base64 encoded
strings to bare alphabets (get rid of / and + characters as well)
<?php
function base64clean($base64string)
{
$base64string=str_replace('=','',$base64string);
$base64string=str_replace('+','',$base64string);
$base64string=str_replace('/','',$base64string);
return $base64string;
}
?>
