samesite: warning too much params.

[BrainPill]

 

I want to set a cookie in a proper way.
So I want to add samesite strict.
When I try to add it with : session_set_cookie_params() at the last parameter (6th) it says :
Warning: session_set_cookie_params() expects at most 5 parameters, 6 given in

example:

    <?php 

    session_set_cookie_params(3600,'','',FALSE, TRUE,'strict');
    ?>

 

How can I add samesite in session_set_cookie_params() ?

Pass an array of options.

I tried this:

        <?php 
        $options = array('lifetime => 3600','samesite=>strict');
        session_set_cookie_params($options);

        ?>

but I get the following error:

( ! ) Notice: Array to string conversion in 

does this indicate that you have to read them out with foreach? 

The reason I ask this, is because all the other params could just be put into the session_set_cookie_params() function but this specific one not.

This makes it an exception to the rule.

According to the notes in the manual, the options array was added in version 7.3.  If you don't have that then you won't be able to use samesite for this.

You array is not being properly defined as associative. Its currently an array with 2 elements of strings. You need to move the quotes.

<?php
$options = array(
  'lifetime' => 3600,
  'samesite' => 'strict'
);
?>

okay I fixed that now.

But I the array to string error is still there.

How to solve this?

I see that now. I have version 7.1.9 so it couldn't work.

Just had a look around.

Would this be relevant?
