Re: [PHP] Repeat : I'm Living in cookie hell....

2001-05-12 Thread barce

Hello Scott,

I took a look at your code, and have a solution for you.

Here's the code:

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result) )
{
if ($row[memberid] == $login_id)
{
// your code here :-)
}
}

 
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result); // Get one row of data only *BAD*
if ($row[memberid] == $login_id) {
   // [...]
}
 
 the path of the cookie to be the root under both instances, it should be
 trying to set the same cookie, right?

correct, but this only works if the first array returned is equal to the
login_id. since you are returning only the first row of your database
table, you never make it to the memberid that you're hoping is there --
assumming that it is there.

Train harder!

RE: [PHP] Repeat : I'm Living in cookie hell....

2001-05-12 Thread Scott Brown


Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately, the problem is not in getting the code to execute - I know it
is for two reasons:

1) the setcookie(...) is being triggered because I have cookie warnings
turned on in the browser, and it warns me that a new cookie is being
received and it shows me the expected content of the cookie

2) the reloacation via the header is occuring as expected.

It's just that the cookie being set isnt being retained on the browser

(oh - and as a side note, there would only ever be 1 match for the returned
mysql result... which is why I didnt loop through them... there's either a
row returned, or not... and if not, then the rest of the code that wasnt
included in the msg handles that situation)

What I'm wondering though, is in the page which sets the cookie ok,
there is no redirection it executes:

setcookie(YONKAMEMBERID,$insert_id,time()+31536000,/,$PHP_HOST);

inline, and then displays the page.

In the page which doesnt set the cookie, there is redirection occuring

setcookie(YONKAMEMBERID,$login_id,time()+31536000,/,$PHP_HOST);
Header(Refresh: 0;url=/);

It's the exact same code -- just a different variable setting the value, and
the header call afterwards. (though even when I comment out the header(..)
it still doesnt work.)

Something just isnt right somewhere.

Is it the path of the script being exeuted that's causing something strange
to occur??

I really am at a loss
