Re: [PHP] cookies on localhost WinXP

[Steve Buehler]

hmmmm.  This seemed to set the cookie just fine.  Does this mean that 
either localhost in the browser or Apache/PHP on a windows box has to set 
the cookie differently than on RedHat/Apache/PHP?  I am going on vacation 
next week and need to keep working on a project that is working fine on the 
RedHat server, but not on my localhost.  Basically, by this test, it sounds 
like on my laptop I have to use a
header('Set-Cookie: ...);
instead of
setcookie ("coach_access[login_id]", "coach",0,"/","$cookhost");
If so, I can't seem to get it to work with "coach_access[login_id]" as the 
cookie name.
On another note, why would this work on the RedHat, but not the WinXP 
Apache/PHP?

Thanks
Steve

Can you try this example? Let's call the file cookie_test.php

<?
if (!empty($_COOKIE['test']))
{
     echo "The test cookie was sent by the browser\n";
}
else
{
     header('Set-Cookie: test=true');
     echo "Trying to set the test cookie.<br />\n";
     echo "<a href=\"./cookie_test.php\">Test</a>\n";
}
?>
I think it's best to start simple. Hope this helps.
