Setcookie problem

[besttb2]

I am trying to store encrypted data into a cookie. I have tested to make sure there is actually data being encrypted.

setcookie code:
setcookie( $this->cookiename, $frozen, $this->expiration, $this->path, $this->domain, $this->secure);

I use setcookie to create the cookie with the values but when I test with session_get_cookie_params() all I get back is:

Array
(
[lifetime] => 0
[path] => /
[domain] =>
[secure] =>
)

I should be getting back the information that is stored in $frozen, right??

Thanks for the help!!

No, that's all [man]session_get_cookie_params[/man] claims to return. But then, this is for the session ID cookie that is created when you're using sessions (hence the name).

The information you're after is in the $_COOKIES array (assuming that the browser is accepting cookies) as described on the [man]setcookie[/man] manual page.
