RE: [PHP] Accessing cookies in required files
Function whatever()
{
global $testcookie;
or
global $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;
or
upgrade your PHP and jus use $_COOKIE['testcookie'] and it's always
available, regardless of scope.

Re: [PHP] Accessing cookies in required files
This sounds like a problem with the function, not file. Are you
globaling the variable with the cookie?

[PHP] Accessing cookies in required files
Hi,
Can anyone help with this problem?
I have a file called "settings.inc" which I include in all files on my site
like this:
require("settings.inc");
Up until now this has worked fine. But now I have a function in the
settings.inc file that tries to read the value of a cookie called
"testcookie". My problem is that the settings.inc file doesn't seem to be
able to access the cookie at all. But if I try to access it direct from a
page rather than the required file it works fine.
Does anybody know why I can't access my cookie in my required file? They are
all on the same directory level etc.
Thanks for any help.
