(it's been about 12 hours since I sent this, and havent seen it come
through, so I'm re-building/re-sending it... 'cause I need some help on
this)
I'm confused. I'm bemuttered. I'm pulling my hair out.
I have a page which processes a membership request, and includes the
following code:
from /secure/membersignup.php (will eventually live under an SSL
connection)
if (!mysql_query($sql))
$insert_id = 0;
else {
$insert_id = mysql_insert_id($connTemp);
setcookie("YONKAMEMBERID",$insert_id,time()+31536000,"/",$PHP_HOST);
}
It quite nicely sets the cookie, and the cookie is accessible from any page
on the site. I know this because (a) I turn on the cookie warnings, and
examine the cookie contents being set, and (b) the cookie contents are
actually thrown out in the header of all my pages (well, any subsequent
pages... I know the limit on cookie processing in PHP). The cookie is
accessible in any script's subdirectory that I've tried.
Next, I also have a log out page, which unsets the cookie using this code:
from /logout.php
setcookie("YONKAMEMBERID","",time()-10000,"/");
which quite happily works and after processing, the cookie is no longer set,
and the data is not thrown into the headers of all my pages.
Now comes my problem : I have a page to allow the user to "login" to the
site (reset the cookie to their membership#)...
from /login.php
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
if ($row[memberid] == $login_id) {
$bad_attempt=0;
setcookie("YONKAMEMBERID",$login_id,time()+31536000,"/",$PHP_HOST);
Header("Refresh: 0;url=/");
}
This code does NOT set the cookie. The only differences here are the
variable name setting it (which must be valid membership ID# otherwise the
database comparison would not work, and the page would not refresh back to
the main index page.) and the path of the script... but since I'm defining
the path of the cookie to be the root under both instances, it should be
trying to set the same cookie, right?
I've even goen so far as scrape the line out of the working code and insert
it into the login page (then changing the variable)... and it still doesnt
work.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm testing with IE 5.01 SP1, and using PHP4.04pl1 on the backend..... I
havent tried under netscape yet.
