Creating a Test Cookie
<source lang="html4strict">
<?php
$string_name = " testcookie"; $string_value = "This is a test cookie"; $expiry_info = time()+259200; $string_domain = "localhost.localdomain"; setcookie($string_name, $string_value, $expiry_info, $string_domain);
?>
</source>
Use cookie to create page counter
<source lang="html4strict">
<?php if (!isset($_COOKIE["visits"])) $_COOKIE["visits"] = 0; $visits = $_COOKIE["visits"] + 1; setcookie("visits",$visits,time()+3600*24*365); ?> <html> <head> <title> Title </title> </head> <body> <?php if ($visits > 1) {
echo("This is visit number $visits.");
} else { // First visit
echo("Welcome to my Website! Click here for a tour!");
} ?> </body> </html>
</source>
Using Multiple Values for a Cookie
<source lang="html4strict">
<?php
if (!isset ($userdetails [0] ) ) {
setcookie ("userdetails[0]", $username);
}
$userdetails[1]++;
setcookie ("userdetails[1]", $userdetails[1]);
echo ("Hello $userdetails[0], you"ve seen this page".$userdetails[1].($userdetails[1] == l?" time!": "times!"));
?>
</source>
