[PHP] Cookie use management
Not directly a PHP problem, but since PHP tends to automatically create a session cookie I thought it appropriate to ask here first. The European rules on asking permission to use cookies have been around for a year now, and very few sites seem to be worrying about it until now, but press coverage is flagging that the ICO in the UK will start 'prosecuting' next week. Not exactly what the ICO are saying themselves, as they would prefer that the BROWSERS defaulted to cookies being blocked generally, so every cookie action requires approval locally anyway. Session cookies could be claimed to be exempt, but with the increasing hidden use of Google Analytics or in my case Piwik, WE become responsible or all that activity and so a few 'commercial' sites are appearing offering chargeable services to manage this for you. I've been trying to dig down through the google results to find anything open source that provides something easily bolted on to existing PHP sites to intercept cookie use before it actually happens. My reading of the rules would suggest that simply adding a session cookie is acceptable as long as the site identifies they are being used, but until there is some 'case law', actually practice is very grey? Pop-up is obviously out of the question since that can be blocked, and even javascript could be blocked so what can be relied on to 'Obtain permission before using a cookie'? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'm thinking I need to write my own module, but I can't believe that no-one has done it yet. Or perhaps they are all charging for the service :) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Cookie access with CLI
2010/6/13 David Česal da...@cesal.cz: Hello, I'm trying to access (from CLI) some website, where login is required. Please, is it possible to set/save some cookies first (login session information) and then access the website as logged user? All through CLI. Thank you very much for any information. David Cesal Beside cURL, you can also use stream contexts to get/set the cookie for subsequent requests. http://docs.php.net/stream_context_create http://docs.php.net/stream_get_meta_data http://docs.php.net/manual/en/context.http.php Essentially, you create a context when you send the data (this will allow you to POST data for a file_get_contents() call). Then you get the meta data from the response. Then you put the cookie you received into the context you will use to continue in communication. If you set up the default context in this way, then you don't need to supply the context to every file command. See the user notes on file_get_contents regarding routing calls through an NTLM proxy. By creating a default context, all my code was routed through an NTML proxy. PHP didn't support NTLM authentication when I wrote the note (not sure it does yet, but my requirement changed). By using a default context, I have 1 place to edit any code (in my auto_prepend.php script). Richard. -- - Richard Quadling Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!

[PHP] Cookie Quandary
I wrote some cookies for a whole bunch of site admins, but failed to set the path, so all the cookies are set to '/admin', which is not going to work for everything they need to do. They are also too long, set for 6 months. I need to correct both issues, so I changed it to write cookies to '/' for 72 hours. I've checked my Safari, and I see that I have both cookies set: A long one for '/admin' and a short one for '/'. I'm worried that once the admins' short cookies run out, their browsers will pick up the longer lasting value for the '/admin' version of the cookie. I want to kill everyones' '/admin' cookies, but I'm worried that some browsers might erase both cookies if I do this. Does anyone know if I can safely kill the '/admin' cookie without risking deletion of the '/' cookie? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Cookie Question
Hi, I am trying to get a cookie to set in Internet Explorer 7, I have tried several different setcookie() configurations, this is the latest. Yes, I read the manual and the user notes, but can't find anything specific about the different security levels in IE. $szCookieName = MyCookie; $nID = 2; $expireTime = 60*60; setcookie($szCookieName, $nID, time()-$expireTime,/,www.mysite.com,false); However, they all work, only if I have the Privacy slider set to low in IE's options. As soon as I go up to medium, it will not work. And it works fine with firefox. The only difference I can see is that Medium Security adds the rule: Restricts first-party cookies that save information that can be used to contact you without your implicit consent. All I am storing is an integer value, why is IE seeing that as information that can contact you? Thanks for any help. Chris

Re: 答复: [PHP]COOKIE or coding
As Todd said, PHP is decoding the URL encoded cookie. The cookie has a
'+' in it, because the HTTP headers cannot submit a space. That's why
when you use Javascript, it shows you what's in the cookie, but when you
use PHP, it shows the space. Which behavior do you prefer? If you want
to see the +, the use this:

It's the mule in me! :) I can't help myself. It's like sitting a pair of shoes down in front of a leprechaun; he can't resist the compulsion the shine and clean those shoes. I can't resist the compulsion to solve a problem by coding a solution for it. I really enjoy programming. It satisfies a creative bent in me, but from time to time I do get very frustrated with it. Especially when, as in this case, it's only a cookie and an easy concept. What frustrates me is I know I'm missing something, but for the life of me I can't see it. Therefore the shoe that I'm compelled to clean and shine keeps dipping itself back into the mud. For me moving from procedural PERL programming to OOP PHP feels like a paradigm shift! some of it coming back easily and some of it not so easily. Ya know... old dog new tricks... that sort of thing. But if I don't challenge myself and learn new things I could run the risk of getting stuck in a rut of thinking the same way about things and well... never mind... shit! more mud on that shoe again. :) -- Mark - the rule of law is good, however the rule of tyrants just plain sucks!

Because IE engineers CANNOT READ a technical document to save their

setcookie(cookiename, $values, time() + $timevalue, /);
You also don't tell use what $timevalue is, so that could be something

Unless you have register_globals set to ON (bad!) then $values will

What *is* in your cookies?
var_dump($_COOKIES);
Perhaps putting '|' in there is not a valid character?
You could base64 encode it or ...

It would be some chunk of the Netscape Cookie spec.

$_SESSION variables are available immediately as soon as you set them.
The session cookie still isn't set on the client until the browser

values are already in the array and, if the session cookie works they
will be accessible on successive requests.

Conversely, $_SESSION data is much quicker, since the PHPSESSID
cookie is sent as soon as you initialize the session
(session_start()), and you can then immediately access the variables.
Proof-of-concept:
?php
// session-test.php
session_start();
$_SESSION['test'] = This is only a test.;
echo $_SESSION['test'].br /\n;
?
?php
// cookie-test.php
setcookie(cookiename,This is a cookie test.,time()+86400);
echo $_COOKIE['cookiename'].br /\n;
?

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;
}
?

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.

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.

Re: [PHP] Cookie Variables Maxing Out Using IE6
Set your session time out to, oh, 2 years or less (as in the spec, they are gonna ignore you if you try more than 2 years). You could even set *ONE* cookie with all the values serialized in an array, and probably stay under the 4K limit. Then you get people like me who, if a cookie value looks TOO funky, I'll reject it, on the assumption that you are exposing my personal info to your advertising sites for user-tracking. Buh-bye. Try to think about your cookies from the perspective of a paranoid media-believing moron. Like that movie with Mel Gibson, sort of... Because SOME of your visitors are that weird, self included. :-) You can store a Cookie to ID me with something I know is me, and then you know who I am for the next 2 years. That should be good enough. Read the PHP session pages, and the setcookie page, and work out what's best for you, with the paranoid user visitor mentality above.

[PHP] Cookie Variables Maxing Out Using IE6
Does IE6 limit somehow/somewhere the number of cookie variables I can
create and store? The following code snippet successfully creates 24
cookie variables when run in FireFox, but in IE6 it is limited to 20. I
can provide the full code with HTML/Javascript if anyone wants to test for
themselves.
David
?php
// populates a hidden form variable on the second submit
$somevar = anything;
if (!IsSet($_POST['monitors']) || empty($_POST['monitors'])) {
$_POST['monitors'] = array();
}
/*** Manage Monitor CheckBoxes via $_POST $_Cookie */
// code in here only runs the first time the page is displayed
if ($_POST['trakVisit'] == ) {
if (IsSet($_COOKIE['cookieMeter'])) {
foreach ($_COOKIE['cookieMeter'] as $key = $value) {
if ($value == 'CHECKED') {
$checked[$key] = 'CHECKED';
}
else
$checked[$key] = ;
}
}
}
// runs on the second and subsequent submits
elseif ($_POST['trakVisit'] == anything) {
for ($i=1; $i = 24; $i++) {
if (in_array($i, $_POST['monitors'])) {
setcookie(cookieMeter[$i], 'CHECKED', time()

Or are there situations where one should be used and the other should be used in these other situations. Ummm, how are you implementings sessions? Usually it's done by cookies... or with trans_sid. Either way you shouldn't really be making a distinction here. Unless of course you mean literally storing the data in the client side cookie, versus storing a unique ID there that maps to something in your database or filesystem... in which case go for the latter, but make sure your ID is long enough and random enough to be secure. Usiong PHP's built in session stuff usually works quite well and saves you needing to do the low level work of linking up the cookie with the data.

Or are there situations where one should be used and the other should be used in these other situations. If it's a variable that you want the user to be able to hold onto for days, weeks, or months at a time (such as a remember me function for blog comments, for example), then use cookies, but NEVER store a username or password, even encrypted, in a cookie. For everything else, use PHP's session handling, particularly the cookie-saved version. Remember, cookies are user-supplied data. That means it is not to be trusted. A session key is hard to hijack, or at least harder than it is to fake a non-random-key cookie.

When they did have the www, the cookie would work and when they didn't, it wouldn't work. It was confusing, at least for me. In any event, many thanks to all for pointing that difference out to me. I feel a lot better about cookies now. Thanks. tedd -- http://sperling.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] cookie question
Hi: Please review -- http://xn--ovg.com -- the Set and Get cookie demo (i.e., 1 2). The code is shown. If you go from Set Cookie to Get Cookie, everything is OK. If you cut the url, quit the browser, start the browser again, paste the url and return to the page, everything is OK. The browser finds the cookie. However, if you go directly from: http://xn--ovg.com to Get Cookie, the cookie is gone -- why? What's happening here? Any ideas, suggestions, or solutions welcomed.

[PHP] Cookie problem
Can't get a cookie to set. Below is the code near the file top BEFORE any html output. $_POST['prefs'] comes from a hidden field in the middle of the html output. $_POST['filter'] comes from a select option. A Submit button closes the page and refreshes it. print_r($_POST) shows $_POST['prefs'] $_POST['prefs'] are just as I expect when the page refreshes. ## code print_r($_POST) session_start(); print_r($_COOKIE); if(isset($_POST['prefs'])) $cookie= setcookie(listpref, $_POST['filter'], time()+7776000); var_dump($cookie) shows bool TRUE I added the session_start() as a test. print_r($_COOKIE) shows the session ID cookie works just fine.

Re: [PHP] Cookie problem
Try simplifying the problem to determine the error point. For example don't involve $_POST just try setting a cookie with hard coded variables. If that works then add in the $_POST and test for BOTH $_POST['prefs'] and $_POST['filter']. Example of simplification: ?php // Send cookie setcookie(listpref,selected,time()+7776000); ?

On privacy policies in IE (can he try another browser?) what is his setting? I'm still waiting on definitive word as to what exactly his privacy settings are. In my experiments, manually setting IE to Always Allow or Always Block cookies for a domain will completely override privacy settings. I've had IE privacy set to allow no cookies, and manually added the domain to Always Allow and this overrode the no cookies setting. For kicks and giggles, I changed $_REQUEST to $_GET, but he reported no difference. Again, I don't see this as being the problem, since if it were so, he'd get no output at all instead of Cookie NOT set. I'm quite convinced this is a matter of his cookie simply not being set. He is not able to ever see a cookie for this domain in his temp internet files folder, though he tells us there are other cookies there. I wish I could tell him to just use another friggin browser, but it would be nice to fix it so he can use the one he wants, no matter what words one can say about his choice. ;) I have not looked into it, but do some internet security apps like Norton try to block certain cookies?

He got Cookie NOT set. which means exactly what it says. He's using
IE 6.0, and swears up and down that he's set it to always allow
cookies from this domain. I can't verify that he's set it correctly,
but he has been told twice how to do it. I also know his browser must
be saving some cookies, as he is able to login to other sites. Has
anyone run into other sources of cookie-blockage in the past? I
cannot manage to duplicate this when I have IE set to always allow

I can verify $_REQUEST is correct for me, and I'm sure it's correct for
him too, since he gets Cookie NOT set. The second if statement
requires $_REQUEST['page'] to be 1 to even get to that line. If
$_REQUEST['page'] is not set, he should get no output at all.
I've been looking through the comments in the manual, and several people
mention privacy policies creating a problem in IE. My problem is none
of this can be duplicated on my machine (or any other so far), and this
customer is in Florida and I'm in Virginia. I've also never seen in
other applications that a privacy policy truly needed to be sent to
allow a cookie to be set, and apparently the web site manager settings
(where you explicitly allow or block cookies from certain domains)
override all privacy settings in IE anyways. So that seems like a dead end.

Why don't you use the operator NOT IDENTICAL (!==), cause != will also
return true if the variables are the same type sometimes.

[PHP] cookie saving problem

If I quit my browser and re-launch, it seems to remember my session variables. [Which was NOT the case when I had these two lines of code reversed -- the sesssion_start() before the session_set_cookie_params() ] However, if I return to the site the following day, it seems to forget my session variables. This has happened 2 days in a row, so I'm a little stumped. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Also, is there something special that has to be done for Netscape to make the cookie stay set for that long?

The outcome of this script is that only the LAST cookie is successfully
stored.
This seems unlikely. It's possible that neither of these statements is
successful (perhaps your script has output prior), and the only reason you
think the first one is being set is because it was set from a previous
test. You can rule this out by using unique names for every single test,
and use something like print_r($_COOKIES) to see exactly what cookies the
browser included in its request for the page.
Hope that helps.

Re: [PHP] cookie question
Are you sure you're trying to access them properly, and on the next
page refresh?
ex)
?php
// Print an individual cookie
echo $_COOKIE[TestCookie];
echo $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[TestCookie];
// Another way to debug/test is to view all cookies
print_r($_COOKIE);
?

Re: [PHP] cookie question
There are many examples (in the comments) at the manual entry for
set_cookie at php.net; go try one of those.
