chaos421 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Hey all. First post here. I'm having some difficulty with cookies and Safari. I've pasted my code below. isValidUser is a function that queries the database. When I test it out on Chrome it works well. In Safari I'm able to log in, but as soon as I navigate away from the page, the cookies disappear. I've tried several permutations with the URL at the end of setcookie including with or without leading '.' and with or without trailing '/' without success. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Keith /*------------------------------------------------------------------- * login * * username: is the person's e-mail address * password: is stored separately *-------------------------------------------------------------------*/function login ($username, $password){ if (!isValidUser($username, $password)) return false; setcookie('username', $username, time()+60*60*24*365, '/', '.northernlightsnordic.org'); setcookie('password', md5($password), time()+60*60*24*365, '/', '.northernlightsnordic.org'); return true;} //end login/*------------------------------------------------------------------- * logout * * *-------------------------------------------------------------------*/function logout (){ setcookie('username', "", time() - 3600, '/', '.northernlightsnordic.org'); setcookie('password', "", time() - 3600, '/', '.northernlightsnordic.org'); return true;} //end logout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I would advise against putting login details into a cookie. Why not use SESSION? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
