Read javascript cookie with php...

[Anon]

Is it possible to use PHP in reading cookies set by JAVASCRIPT?

I do this when I need to set a cookie in php.

---

$the_cookie = $login . ":" . $passwd;

header ("Set-Cookie: the_cookie=$the_cookie; expires=Friday, 16-Jan-2037 00:00:00 GMT; path=/;");

This is how I set the same cookie in JS

var login = "<? echo $login; ?>";
var passwd = "<? echo $passwd; ?>";

var the_cookie = login + ":" + passwd;

document.cookie=the_cookie;expires=date;

Can I use php to read a cookie set by javascript?

I tried already without success. But what I've learned about cookies is that sometimes they give me strange results on my system, even when everything is actually working ok.

Thanks.
