setcookie ("CookieValue", "$value", time() + 14400);

I can do basic php, but how can I set this cookie up to block a certain file and then after so many seconds delete the cookie and let the user use/get the file again then, itll of course, reset the cookie after they user does the process again ???

please help 😉

just set the cookie experation time

Cookie calculations are

seconds X minutes X Hours X Days

I want to have a cookie to expire after 20 minutes, so the following will be:

60 X 20

setCookie('CookieValue', $value, time()+(1200), '/', '', 0);

so your page will have

if (!$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['CookieValue']) {
    echo "<a href=\"Your link to file\">Download Now</a>";
} else {
    echo "You have already downloaded this file";
}

Can anyone help ?

What exactly is your goal. The linking code for downloads and how you want to retreive them are simple. Give more detail of how you want to retreive these files and I can write a short script examples for you.

As I said above, its for streaming video... from a customers site to, I guess, his users 🙂 any help you could offer would be greatly appreicated.
