Cookies

Hi, I am currently onverting my site from ASP into PHP, and am having problems with my cookies.

I have set them in ASP, an now want to call them from PHP.

To call in ASP i do this..

request.cookies("elmer")("username")
request.cookies("elmer")("password")

but i cant seem to do it in PHP.

I can get the whole "elmer" string up in PHP, but not the component parts, which in this case are Username and password.

so far i have done this in PHP to get the cookie value..

$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["elmer"];

but as i said this gives me this...

password=mypassword&username=myusername

can anyone help me 🙂

thanks

Take a look at the parse_str function (in the Strings section of the manual). It will do what you want.
