im trying to create a "remember password" type thing in a user preference box so users dont have to type in their passwords everytime they want to use the system.
having some trouble with the cookies though. here's the deal:
i set a cookie called mycookie on a page called designer.php (for testing purposes) and set the value to "this is a test value". then on the user preference page after they submit the form (a page called change_profile.php) i set mycookie's value to "testing123"
when i echo the cookie variables back it says its value is "this is a test value"
if i do not set the value on another page...and echo the cookie value back out on change_profile.php the cookie value comes up blank.
but...if i look in my cookies folder in the file that was set...the cookie value is "testing123"
could anyone shed some light on my situation here?
thanks 😃
