Cookie question

[pinehead18]

Don't cookies stay in the persons temp file, so that you may access the information by using $cookie in any page.. or do you have to refrence that specfific cookie somehow?

my problem is, is that i have a cookie set, and i can view the value of the cookie on the same page i have the cookie set code.

But when i go to another page it will not work.

Thank you your help

Please post some code: how do you set cookie, and how do you try to retrieve it.

i can view the value of the cookie on the same page i have the cookie set code

I'm afraid you're wrong. That's impossible 🙂

<?php

setcookie ("affilate", $af);

setcookie ("affilate", $af,time()+3600);
setcookie ("affilate", $af,time()+3600, ".domain.com", 1);

echo $affilate;
echo $_COOKIE["affilate"];

?>

It will retriev on this page.. But if i use that retriev code on any other page it does not work.
Thanks

setcookie ("affilate", $af);
setcookie ("affilate", $af,time()+3600);
setcookie ("affilate", $af,time()+3600, ".domain.com", 1);

• what's that for? Why three setcookies instead of one?

boolean setcookie ( string name [, string value [, int expire [, string path [, string domain [, int secure]]]]])

• you miss path parameter.
