Thank you Andrew... Now it all makes perfect sense. Good grief!
there's
so much to learn. It seems that Java was easier. ;)
That's not specific to PHP. It's just how http works, so it's the same
for ASP, Perl, I suspect Java and most (if not all) other languages.
There might be a language that sets a cookie when you assign a value
to a special cookie variable, but I'm not familiar with any.
Andrew
Unless I was doing something differently when I originally wrote this
in PERL I don't recall having this issue. At that time I would set the
cookie and then redirect (load the index with the full menu) if cookie
existed.
Geez! now my $_SESSION isn't persisting to the next page when the
screen refreshes. The only thing preventing me from gouging out my
eyes right now is that I know I'll get this stuff. It's just a matter
of time...
The problem that you are encountering is because the $_COOKIE array is
populated when the script is executed. More then likely the other
languages that you used, would allow you to set a cookie and then they
would enter them into the global array for you, and not make you wait
until the next page load.
You could accomplish this yourself by making a wrapper function for the
setcookie() function and have your function set the data using
setcookie() and having it enter the data directly into the $_COOKIE array.
Something like this should do the trick
?php
/*
bool setcookie ( string $name
[, string $value
[, int $expire
[, string $path
[, string $domain
[, bool $secure
[, bool $httponly ]] )
*/
function mySetCookie($name,
$value=null,
$expire=0,
$path='/',
$domain=null,
$secure=FALSE,
$httponly=FALSE) {
if ( is_null($domain) )
$domain = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
if ( setcookie( $name, $value, $expire,
$path, $domain, $secure, $httponly) ) {
$_COOKIE[$name] = $value;
return true;
}
return false;
}
?
Wow! very sweet!!
Thank you Jim. I'm getting my brain good and wrinkled today.

Now, if I cause at least 1 image in the page to become missing on the server (ie, by deleting a .jpg file), then Apache logs the error as usual, ie: File does not exist. But in addition, my two session variables seem to get deleted. If I put the picture(s) back, then no apache errors, and my session vars are set fine. I've even enabled detailed php error reporting and I get no errors. Is this normal session behavior? Please say no. Any ideas?

I suspect I already know part of the answer to this, but I'm not sure
which way to go with it. I've got a project I'm working on and one of
the things it's got to do is set cookies and then read them later.
When
the app was first written I was doing everything in PERL and cookies
are
fairly straight-forward, however I'm finding cookies in PHP somewhat
problematic.
Setting the cookie is a snap, however getting the info back out is,
well... problematic.
this is basically what I'm doing, what I'm seeing in the cookie, and
what I'm getting back out.
Setting the cookie
==
$values = blah|blah|blah;
setcookie(cookiename, $values, time()+$timevalue);
Because IE engineers CANNOT READ a technical document to save their
lives, you MUST supply a path if you supply a time:
setcookie(cookiename, $values, time() + $timevalue, /);
You also don't tell use what $timevalue is, so that could be something
very wrong... :-)
Inside the Cookie
==
Content: blah%7Cblah%7Cblah
Getting info Out Of Cookie
==
list($first,$second,$third) = explode(|, $values);
Unless you have register_globals set to ON (bad!) then $values will
only have meaning in the setcookie script...
Cookie Test Page
==
if (isset($_COOKIE[cookiename])){
list($first,$second,$third) = explode('|',$_COOKIE[cookiename]);
echo pI found your cookie/p\n;
echo pThe following Values were Contained in the cookie:BR
Username: $firstBR
Password: $secondBR
Type: $third/p\n;
You should NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT be storing a username *or* password in
a cookie!!!
}
else{
echo pI wasn't able to find your cookie./p\n;
}
Now, I've constructed a cookie_test.php page to check things out and
the
strange behavior I'm seeing is, upon first execution I get the else
block, but if I hit the browser's reload button I get the if block.
At
first I thought the cookie wasn't being read at all because of weird
characters, but then upon reloading the page and seeing the if block
being displayed I'm thoroughly confused. It's gotta something simple
I'm
missing.
What *is* in your cookies?
var_dump($_COOKIES);
Perhaps putting '|' in there is not a valid character?
You could base64 encode it or ...
and I swear if someone tells me to RTFM I'm gonna shit and go blind
cause I haven't got a clue as to which part of the FM to read
concerning this. :)
It would be some chunk of the Netscape Cookie spec.
Google for Netscape Cookie spec and read that. It's only a page.

Sometimes PHP works too fast for its own good and the client doesn't even realize it has a cookie yet.

Cookie data ISN'T available to the same script that sets it. If you use setcookie(), all it does is send a header to the browser immediately ahead of the output of your script telling the browser to store those values in either memory or on disk.

This is because the server writes the data to a file on its side, then sends just a session ID cookie to the browser. This session ID holds no information except the key to the session file on the server with which it's associated. However, if you're still on the same server, make sure that you've used session_start() at the top of every page to which you want the session to carry over. EXAMPLE: Page1session_start() is used and the UID of the visitor is set. Page 2 session_start() is used, but no data is read/written. Page 3 session_start() is NOT used, no $_SESSION data available. Page 4 session_start() is used, and is re-initialized despite missing Page 3. -- /Daniel P.

first of all, SimpleXMLElement is not an array, its a class. It does
support iteration via the foreach construct though. the foreach iteration
will only go through the first set of elements in the structure, that is it
will only cover the children of the root element. if you want to traverse
all elements of the structure recursively, use SimpleXMLIterator (and
RecursiveIteratorIterator) from SPL.
heres a simple xample to get you started:
?php
$xml = 'mab//ac//m';
$m = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
foreach($m as $k = $v) { echo k:$k = v:$v . PHP_EOL; }
/* outputs
k:a = v:
k:c = v:
*/
$m = new SimpleXMLIterator($xml);
foreach(new RecursiveIteratorIterator($m,
RecursiveIteratorIterator::CHILD_FIRST) as $k = $v) { echo k:$k = v:$v .
PHP_EOL; }
/* outputs
k:b = v:
k:a = v:
k:c = v:

General rule of thumb used to be 2 seconds... If your page hasn't outputted some form of usable information in 2 seconds or less, people don't stick around. What's worse is that some browsers require the whole page contents before they will draw the page, so you get a white page while the page is loading into the browser and the client gets nothing.
