nuahssiaram 0 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hi, I have just started learning php and I am trying to make a mobi site send a cookie so that visitors can switch between mobile and full site views. I feel like I have tried everything. I don't think the cookie is sending. I am using Google Chrome to search for the cookie, but nothing comes up. Is the following code right?I have placed it on the first line of code "before any html is sent"(according to the tutorials). <?php $expireDate = time() +3600; setcookie("testcookie", "formywebsite", $expireDate, "/", "mobi.website.com");?> Quote Link to post Share on other sites

justsomeguy 1,135 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Make sure the domain matches the site you're testing on. This may not work if you're testing on localhost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuahssiaram 0 Posted December 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Thanks, it's working. Total noob moment. I didn't save as .php(when you think you've tried everything there still is one more thing) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
