To set a cookie, assign it a name, value, and expiration. You can also set things but those are the main three.

setcookie("cookiename","cookievalue","expirationtime","/","",0);

To read a cookie use this line:

echo $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["cookiename"];

Hope it helps 🙂

or echo $_COOKIE['cookiename'];
