header problem

[nate]

can the cookie work together with header()?

i can't get my cookie after i use the header()

my code is as below :

if($done!=1)
{
header("Location:$PHP_SELF?done=1");
setcookie("cookie_1", "test");
}
else
{
header("Location:http://ejmen.com/dealer/index.php");
}

i can't get the value i have already set after the page has been redirect. is there any solution??

you have to acces $done with $_COOKIE['done'] or $_REQUEST['done']
(read the manual page and you'll understand)

Try switching the lines around:

Code: Select all

if($done!=1)
{
   setcookie("cookie_1", "test");
   header("Location:$PHP_SELF?done=1");
}
else
{      
   header("Location:http://ejmen.com/dealer/index.php");
}
