Cookie Problem

junkie_doodle

I'va faced up with a problem when I uploaded my codes to a server...

This is what my problem is...

( This setting were good enough on LAN )

when a sendin a cookie with such a code like
(http://localhost/project1/pp.php)
setcookie ("a","value",time()+3600);

,I was able to send/read like

print $a;//-->Returns value( as you know 😛 )

but when I moved my project to a remote server like

http://355.355.355.355/project1/pp.php

I lost my control on cookies..
I 've checked that I'm now able to send cookie but can not read a value from it...

could anyone can help me for handling this problem...

The problem is that the client stores cookies associated with the domain they were set on (localhost), and when the pages are moved to 1.2.3.4, then the cookies are no longer attached to it (1.2.3.4 is different to localhost, and so the browser's not going to pass on cookies to another site.)

That is not always true, it's a setting in the browser that controls wether cookies are only returned to the originating domain.

A different matter may be that you rely on cookie cars to be registered as globals. Try

print_r($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS);

That's one hell of a security risk, if that's the case.

That's why I never use cookies... or sessions...

Sorry!!!!!

I'm not trying to read a cookie that I've sent at localhost..

I'm sending cookie at remote server but cant readit from there...

If you were to call a php-document through a javascript, like this:

Would the source then be able to fetch cookies deployed by source.php?

Sorry if the question seems a bit weird! Its just that Im need the info know why my poll (that follows the above principal) doesnt work.
