PHP cookie

When I use below code,
the output is :

three : cookiethree
two : cookietwo
one : cookieone

how can I assign a varible to those cookies?


setcookie("cookie[three]", "cookiethree");
setcookie("cookie[two]", "cookietwo");
setcookie("cookie[one]", "cookieone");

// after the page reloads, print them out
if (isset($_COOKIE['cookie'])) {
    foreach ($_COOKIE['cookie'] as $name => $value) {
        $name = htmlspecialchars($name);
        $value = htmlspecialchars($value);
        echo "$name : $value <br />\n";
    }
}

The idea is that you set any data in the cookies that indicate that the visitor have seen the banner, for example:

When you print the banner for the first time, add this code:
 

setcookie("banner_status", 1, 60*60*24*30, "/");

Select allOpen in new window

Whenever you want to know if the visitor have seen the banner or not use the following if statement
 

if ($_COOKIE["banner_status"] == 1)
{
    // The user have seen the banner
} else {
    // The user have not seen the banner
}

Select allOpen in new window

Dear Medo3337,
that is exactly what I want.

I wrote it like you did, but it didn't work.
but there is an error message below.

Notice: Undefined index: banner_status in /srv/web/www/real-tr/sites/files/real.tr-2010/data/session/banner_cookie.php on line 24
The user have not seen the banner

I wrote it like this,
<?php

setcookie("banner_status", 1, 60*60*24*30, "/");

if ($_COOKIE["banner_status"] == 1)
{
    echo "The user have seen the banner";
} else {
    echo "The user have not seen the banner";
}

?>

Dear bportlock,
thank you very much,
that was really helpful,
I want to learn why I should use path parameter '/' ?
what is it for?

Use the following code:

<?php

setcookie("banner_status", 1, time() + 60*60*24*30);

if ($_COOKIE["banner_status"] == 1)
{
    echo "The user have seen the banner";
} else {
    echo "The user have not seen the banner";
}

?>

Select allOpen in new window

thank you very much
