no expiration cookie

[leetcrew]

okay, i am using save password option...

setcookie ("user", "user");
setcookie ("pasword", md5("pass"));

using this code, the cookies will expire once the browser has been closed. My goal is, the cookie will stay on the browser until it was cleared.

please help, thanks in advance! 🙂

I think your going to want to use sessions. Cookies must have an expirey date. Your cookie as default will expire as soon as the person gets on the page.

set expiration date to 3 years leater, 10 years later/ whatever
3 years is a good enough time.

calculate timestamp of 3 yrs later by using:-
time() + 3 * 31536000

for $x years
time() + $x * 31536000
