[PHP-DB] (U) RE: [PHP-DB] Cookie problem From: Holmes, John W 1 LT (HolmesJW <email protected>)

I think this will work. Read the manual on Variable Variables...

$var = "votecookie" . $row[0] . $row[6];
$($var) = true;

You can now use $votecookie06, or whatever the numbers are.

I don't know if having all of these variables is the best way to do things,
though...not sure what you're doing...

Subject: [PHP-DB] Cookie problem

Okay, I need help again... Here goes:

I used a loop to set the cookie name to "votecookie".$row[0].$row[6] - that
works fine, I now have a lot of cookies called votecookie111, votecookie121,
votecookie131 and so on.

My problems are two.
1. How do I change the cookie variable? The cookie setting must be variable
based, since it is in a loop. I.e. I cant set it like:

$votecookie121 = true

I must use something like:

$."votecookie".$row[0].$row[6] = true

The above is an invalid command, but if it worked it would be perfect.

2. I need to use an IF to check if the cookie is = true. The same problem
applies as above, I think.

I must say that PHP is a very nice language - I started learning it just a
few days, and I already know it a little. Cool. Please help me out on this
one, though, before I explode and die.
